ModifyInstanceBandwidth

1. API Description

The API is used to modify the bandwidth of an instance.

Note

  • Bandwidth cap differs with different instance models. You can call DescribeInstanceTypes to obtain.

  • You can only perform this operation on instances whose status is RUNNING.

  • If your current and target bandwidth are both in the free bandwidth scope, the change takes immediate effect.

  • If the internetChargeType of your instance is ByBandwidth

    • For a PREPAID instance:

      • Upgrade (target > current) operation will deduct the amount required for this instance purchase. If the balance is insufficient, the request will fail and take effect immediately.

      • Downgrade (target < current) operation will generate an order for the next billing cycle and will take effect by then.

    • For a POSTPAID instance, the change takes immediate effect.

  • Use InquiryPriceInstanceBandwidth to query price of bandwidth.

  • Use DescribeInstanceInternetStatus to query bandwidth status of an instance.
