After purchasing a Memcached Edition instance, you can view detailed information about the instance in the console in an intuitive and fast way. This includes the instance's running status, capacity usage, cluster primary-secondary relationship, network status, and other information. You can also efficiently manage the ops of the instance.
Prerequisites
The instance has not been terminated or isolated in the recycle bin.
2. Select the region at the top of the instance list page on the right.
3. Find the target instance in the instance list.
You can use the search box at the upper-right corner of the instance list to search for the target instance by entering the instance ID, instance name, private IP, or tag key. Only instance names support fuzzy search.
If the target instance is not found in the instance list, go to the Recycle Bin in the left sidebar to check if the instance has been isolated due to expired fees. For more information, see Recycle Bin.
4. Check the running status, configuration specifications, architecture version, and capacity usage of the target instance.
