Shutdown, Undeploy, and Terminate

Purpose

HyperCloud Dashboard features a number of functions automated with the click of a button. This page defines the difference between the 'Shutdown', 'Undeploy' and 'Terminate' buttons, available when working with compute instances.

Definitions

Button	Description
Shutdown	Shuts down the compute instance, but continues to reserve CPU and RAM resources.
Undeploy	Shuts down the compute instance, and removes the CPU and RAM resource allocation, but keeps the instance in HyperCloud including data disks. This is useful as a non-destructive way to save resources.
Terminate	Entirely removes the compute instance entry, including the CPU and RAM resource allocation. Data disks are destroyed.
