Renewal
Manual renewal
Manual renewal is defined as the renewal mode by default, and tailored to the scenario in which the RDS is put into initial use and renewal is operated by OPS staff on schedule. Weaknesses of manual renewal include monthly operation to manual renewal, complicated operations, and interruption of instance services or data loss likely resulting from the negligence of renewal.
