This topic describes how to release a Server Load Balancer (SLB) instance. You can immediately release pay-as-you-go SLB instances or release them on schedule. After an SLB instance is deleted, you are no longer charged for it.

Background information

Procedure

  1. Log on to the SLB console.

    Note The system releases the SLB instances at 30-minute and hour marks. However, billing for the SLB instance is stopped at the specified release time.
