CloudService node

A CloudService node represents an instance of a cloud service in a cloud region. A cloud service is a service, such as compute (a VM), storage, or a load balancer.

The following section describes the scenarios in which a cloud service node is created or removed. CloudService nodes are never updated.

CloudService node lifecycle

The following section describes the scenarios in which a CloudService node is created or removed.

Creation

A CloudService node is created when a cloud service such as a VM, or a database is discovered in the cloud.

Removal

A CloudService node is not automatically removed.

To remove a CloudService node manually, select it in the list and pick Destroy from the Actions list. 

If you remove a CloudService node, then its contained nodes are removed. For more information, see Cascade Removal.
