Lindorm:Activate the service

Billing method

The fees for the compute engine consist of the following two parts:

• Elastic resource fees: Resource usage scales elastically based on the compute load. You are billed for the actual resource usage. The billing unit is the compute unit (CU). 1 CU is equal to 1 vCPU and 4 GB of memory. The price of 1 CU is USD 0.031 per hour.

  Important

  In the SAU (Riyadh - Partner Region) region, the price of 1 CU is USD 0.0378 per hour.

• Base usage fees for 15 CUs.

Compute engine vSwitch settings

You must provide a vSwitch with sufficient available IP addresses to ensure that the compute engine resource group runs properly. After the compute engine is activated, perform the following steps to add a vSwitch:

1. Log on to the Lindorm console.

2. In the upper-left corner of the page, select the region where the instance is deployed.

3. On the Instances page, click the ID of the target instance or click View Instance Details in the Actions column for the instance.

4. In the navigation pane on the left, click Compute Engine.

5. Click the O&M Management tab.

6. Click Modify. In the Configure vSwitch dialog box, select a vSwitch that has sufficient available IP addresses.

   Note

   • If you create a new vSwitch, make sure that the vSwitch is in the same zone as the Lindorm instance. For more information, see Create and manage vSwitches.

   • The Configure Network vSwitch dialog box displays only the vSwitches that are in the same zone as the Lindorm instance.

   • You can select a maximum of five vSwitches.

7. Click OK.
