Clone

Click Action > Clone to quickly set up another instance using the configuration of the current instance. You can change the configuration by clicking the pencil icon.

As each instance requires an independent root password, scroll down to Account Setting and set a new password for this new instance. After reviewing all the information, click Start.

If you choose not to set the instance name manually by modifying Configuration, system will generate a name with the following naming convention: the first four characters from the existing instance's name, C (stands for "Clone"), and a random number for distinguishment. For example, the clone instance of "My 1st Instance" could be named as "My 1_C031562".

Terminate

Warning: To terminate an instance means to delete the instance and all data contained completely, which is irrevocable and unrecoverable.

Click Action > Terminate, enter the instance name and click Terminate.
