You can renew your subscription E-MapReduce clusters manually or by enabling auto-renewal to prevent them from being automatically released upon expiration. When auto-renewal is enabled, the system automatically renews your resources before they expire, which prevents resource release and data loss. Pay-as-you-go clusters do not require renewal, provided that your Alibaba Cloud account has a sufficient balance. This topic describes how to manually renew a subscription cluster, configure auto-renewal, and disable auto-renewal.
Manual renewal
Prerequisites
The subscription cluster must be in the Running state and have no unpaid orders.
Renewal rules
-
You can manually renew instances that are in the Running state and have not expired, or have expired but have not been released.
NoteIf you do not renew the ECS instances in a cluster within 15 days after they expire, the system deletes the instances and their data on the 15th day after expiration.
-
The renewal period is based on the duration you specify. For example, if you select a renewal period of three months, the instance is immediately renewed for three months.
Procedure

Quick renewal (recommended)
To set a uniform renewal policy for all ECS instances and the corresponding EMR instance in the cluster, use this method. Select a renewal duration from the Renewal Setting drop-down list.
-
Custom Renewal
ImportantTo prevent nodes from being released due to inconsistent expiration dates, we recommend that you renew all instances at the same time.
To set different renewal policies for the ECS instances and the corresponding EMR instance, click Custom Renewal in the upper-right corner. Then, in the list, set the renewal duration for each EMR and ECS instance.
