Resource Transfer

This document explains how to transfer Bare Metal resources under your account to another account, detailing the prerequisites, limitations, and important risks involved.

Transfer Overview

You can transfer ownership of a specified Bare Metal instance and its associated resources to another account within the platform by generating and submitting a "Transfer Token". The recipient can then use this token to complete the resource acceptance process in one go.

Restrictions

To ensure a smooth transfer, your resource must meet all of the following conditions:

Condition	Description
Resource Status	The instance must be in the "Stopped" state.
Security Configuration	Remove all bound SSH keys from the instance.
Validity Period	The resource must not be in "Pending Expiration" or "Expired" status.
Transfer Frequency	The same resource can only be initiated for transfer once within a 30-calendar-day period.

Operation Steps

1. Log in to the console and navigate to Account Info > Resource Transfer.
2. Select the instance you wish to transfer, as shown in the figure below:

3. Enter the recipient account's Transfer Token, click Transfer, and complete the email security verification to finalize the resource transfer.

Enter the transfer token for the receiving account.

Risk Notice

Please be fully aware of and understand the following risks:
Operation is Irreversible: Once the transfer is successful, ownership of the resource will immediately belong to the recipient's account. This process cannot be undone or reversed.
Service Continuity: The transfer may involve configuration changes such as a change of the original IP address (if applicable). Please coordinate thoroughly with the recipient and plan your service migration and handover in advance to avoid service disruption.
