Item | Scenario |
Number of assets | If the number of assets that can be managed by your bastion host exceeds your business requirements, you can downgrade the number of assets that can be managed by your bastion host. Note Before you can downgrade the number of assets that can be managed by your bastion host, you must reduce the number of imported assets in your bastion host to a value no greater than the number of assets that you want your bastion host to manage. Otherwise, you cannot downgrade the number of assets that can be managed by your bastion host. For example, the number of assets that can be managed by your bastion host is 100 and 60 assets are imported into your bastion host. If you want to downgrade the number of assets that can be managed by your bastion host to 50, you must reduce the number of imported assets to 50 or less. |
Bandwidth | If the bandwidth of your bastion host exceeds your business requirements, you can downgrade the bandwidth. Valid values: 0 Mbit/s to 150 Mbit/s. You can change the value in increments of 5 Mbit/s. |
Storage | If the storage of your bastion host exceeds your business requirements, you can downgrade the storage. Valid values: 0 TB to 500 TB. You can change the value in increments of 1 TB. |
You cannot downgrade a bastion host from a later version to an earlier version, such as from V3.2.41 to V3.2.40.
When you downgrade the number of assets that a bastion host can manage, you can select only from the available values for Assets on the Downgrade page.
You cannot downgrade a bastion host from the Enterprise edition to the Basic edition.
Downgrade fees
A configuration downgrade may result in a refund. The refund amount is the difference between the remaining amount of the configuration price before the downgrade and the price of the new configuration.
Procedure
A bastion host that is being downgraded is in the Updating Configuration state. The downgrade process requires approximately 20 minutes to complete, and your business may be interrupted for approximately 1 minute. We recommend that you downgrade your bastion host during off-peak hours.
Log on to the Bastionhost console.
In the left-side navigation pane, click Basic Edition & Enterprise Edition.
On the Instances page, find the bastion host that you want to downgrade and click Downgrade.
On the bastionhost | Downgrade page, configure the items that you want to downgrade.
Read and select Terms of Service, confirm the refund amount, click Buy Now, and then complete the payment.
