Reset the Admin Password

1. Enter the dedicated instance list, and then click the "Dedicated Instance Name" to enter the page of instance details.

2. Click "Reset the Password", and enter the admin's new password and SMS verification code in the pop-up dialog. Afterward, click "Ok" to complete the password reset.

Batch Reset the Adm Password

1. Enter the dedicated instance list, select the dedicated instance on which you want to reset the password, and then click "Reset the Password" from "More Operations".

2. Enter the "Admin's New Password," "Confirm the New Password" and "SMS Verification Code" in the pop-up dialog, and then click "Ok" to complete the password reset.

Configure Public Network Bandwidth

The user can bind a dedicated instance to an EIP. After that, this dedicated instance is going to obtain the corresponding public IP address and its bandwidth.

Please create an EIP instance first, and then execute the following operations to bind this dedicated instance to an EIP:

1. Enter the dedicated instance list, select a dedicated instance, and then click on which you want to create a snapshot, and then click on the icon as shown below. If no "IP" column is available in the dedicated instance list, you can add one by referring to Step 2 in View a Dedicated Instance.

2. Select an IP address from the drop-down menu in the pop-up window, and then click "Ok".

3. Through viewing the dedicated instance list, you can see the bound public IP address and its bandwidth configuration.

Adjust Configuration

Note: Adjusting the dedicated instance's configuration may cause your business to be interrupted for a short time. Please perform this operation carefully.

For the dedicated instance that has been created, if the previously allocated computing resources do not meet the requirements, you can adjust the configuration. If more computing resources are available to the dedicated hot, you can allocate more resources to the dedicated instance. Or you can also reduce the current computing resources, but please note that local disk resources can only be adjusted upwards, rather than downwards.

After the disk capacity is expanded, the following consequences may occur:

• For the Windows operating system, after the capacity expansion, the allocated disk data is not lost, and the expanded capacity is appended to the allocated disk or left blank. Take the expansion from 10 G to 20 G as an example:

  • If the unallocated disk before expansion is 10 G, the unallocated disk is 20G after expansion.
  • If the user created a disk on the data disk, the unallocated space is going to be added to the allocated disk after the expansion. For example, before expansion, disk D is 8 G and the unallocated disk is 2 G. After expansion, disk D becomes 18 G, while the unallocated disk is 2 G.
  • If the user created two or more disks on the data disk, after expansion, the unallocated space is not going to be added to the allocated disk. For example, before expansion, disk D is 8 G and disk E is 2 G. After expansion, disk D is 8 G, disk E is 2 G, and the unallocated disk becomes 10 G.

• For the Linux operating system, take the expansion from 10 G to 20 G as an example. The drive letter is /dev/vdb:

  • After expansion, the capacity of the data disk dev/vdb is 20 G.
  • After expansion, the capacity of the data disk /dev/vdb increases, and the existing partitions on the data disk are not affected (such as: /dev/vdb1, /dev/vdb2), and the data is not lost.
  • After expansion, the user can continue to perform partitions on the expanded capacity of the data disk, or delete the existing partition (unmount the disk before deleting any partitions), and then re-create any partitions. For more information on how to perform partitions on the disk and mount disks, please see Create a File System.
  • After a partition is deleted, the saved content may be lost. So please execute this operation carefully.

The specific operation steps are as follows:

1. Enter the dedicated instance list, and then click the "Dedicated Instance Name" to enter the page of instance details.

2. Click "Adjust Configuration" to enter the configuration adjusting page.

3. After the configuration of the dedicated instance has been modified, click "Save" to complete the modification.

Reinstall the Operating System

Note: Reinstalling the operating system is going to delete all data in the system disk and cannot be recovered anymore (the data on the data disk is not affected). At the same time, this operation is going to cause service to be interrupted.Please back up your data, get ready for service switching, and then perform this operation carefully.

1. Enter the dedicated instance list, and then click the "Dedicated Instance Name" to enter the page of instance details.

2. Click "Reinstall the Operating System", configure the system image and admin password in the pop-up dialog, and then enter the SMS verification code. Afterwards, click "Ok".

In the "More operations" on the right of the dedicated instance list, the operation entry to the operating system reinstallation is available, as shown in the following figure:
