This topic describes how to manage pending events. When an ApsaraDB for RDS event is pending for processing, you will be notified of handling the event in the console.

You can receive notifications for events such as instance migration and version upgrade by SMS messages, phone calls, emails, internal messages, and console notifications. You can view event types, regions, procedures, precautions, and related instances as well as change the scheduled switchover time.

Prerequisites

A pending O&M event exists.

Note If there are unprocessed O&M events, you can see notification badges on the Pending Events button in the upper-right corner of the page.

Procedure

  1. Log on to the ApsaraDB for RDS console.
