ApsaraDB for MongoDB:Change the billing method of an ApsaraDB for MongoDB instance from pay-as-you-go to subscription

Prerequisites

• The instance uses the pay-as-you-go billing method and is in the Running state.

• The instance is of an available instance type. For more information about unavailable instance types, see Historical instance types.

  Note

  If you need to change the billing method of an instance that is of a phased-out instance type from pay-as-you-go to subscription, change the instance type first. For more information, see Overview.

• The instance runs MongoDB 4.0 or later.

  Note

  If you need to change the billing method of an instance that runs MongoDB 4.0 or earlier from pay-as-you-go to subscription, upgrade the database engine version of the instance first. For more information, see Upgrade the major version of an ApsaraDB for MongoDB instance and Update the minor version of an ApsaraDB for MongoDB instance.

• The instance has no unpaid subscription orders.

  Note

  If you change the billing method of an instance from pay-as-you-go to subscription, the system generates a subscription order. You cannot purchase a new instance or change the billing method of an instance to subscription until you pay for this order. You can log on to the Billing Management console and choose Expenses > Orders to pay for the order or cancel it.

• Your account balance is sufficient.
