This topic describes how to restart an ApsaraDB for Redis instance to release all
connections when the number of connections reaches the upper limit or performance
issues occur.
Impacts
During the restart, the instance may be disconnected within seconds. We recommend
that you restart the instance during off-peak hours. Before you restart the instance,
make sure that your application can reconnect to the instance.
Procedure
- Log on to the ApsaraDB for Redis console.
- On the top of the page, select the region where the instance is deployed.
- On the Instances page, find the instance that you want to restart and choose in the Actions column.
- In the dialog box that appears, select a restart time.
