If an ECS has expired or been released, you can use the system disk image created from the ECS to restore it.īefore creating a private image from an ECS:.

For details, see Replicating Images Across Regions. If you want to use the image in another region, you must first replicate it to that region. For example, if an ECS is located in the CN-Hong Kong region, the system disk image created from that ECS will also be located in the CN-Hong Kong region.

A system disk image will be created in the same region as the ECS that was used to create it.

The time required for creating an image depends on the ECS system disk size, network quality, and the number of concurrent tasks.

In this process, do not stop, start, or restart the ECS, or the image creation may fail.

The image creation does not affect service running on the ECS. You can create an image from a running ECS.Download the image file from the OBS bucket.If it is created from a public image, the system disk image cannot be exported. The ECS must be created from a private image.
