Disaster recovery instance group details

Updated at:

After you create a disaster recovery instance, you can view the basic information, topology, and configuration list of the instance group on its details page.

Prerequisites

A disaster recovery instance has been created.

Page overview

Go to the Global Distributed Database page. In the instance group list, click the ID of the target disaster recovery instance group to open its details page and view its basic information, topology, and configuration list.

Basic information

The basic information includes the instance group ID, Name, Type, Database Engine, Creation time, Status, and Region.

Topology

The topology diagram visualizes the relationship between the primary instance and its disaster recovery instances, showing details such as the status of synchronization links, the status of individual instances, and other basic information.

Click the instance ID for each role to open the corresponding RDS instance details page.

Configuration list

The configuration list is divided into the RDS instance list and DTS instance list, as described below:

RDS instance list

The RDS instance list displays all instances within the instance group—along with their Instance Status, Region/availability zone, Role, and Creation time—and allows you to manage them.

DTS instance list

The DTS instance list shows the synchronization links (DTS instances) from the primary instance to disaster recovery instances, along with their Region, Status, and Creation time.

When you promote a disaster recovery instance to a primary instance, the system automatically releases the associated DTS synchronization link. No manual action is required.

Synchronization performance

You can specify a time range to view the following performance monitoring metrics:

  • dag_lag_seconds: Replication lag

  • dag_unhealthy_db_count: Number of unhealthy databases in synchronization

  • dag_log_send_queue_size_kb: Log sending queue size

  • dag_log_send_rate_kb_per_sec: Log sending rate

  • dag_log_redo_queue_size_kb: Log apply queue size

  • dag_log_redo_rate_kb_per_sec: Log apply rate
