Take over OCP

This topic describes how to take over OceanBase Cloud Platform (OCP) in the OceanBase Admin Toolkit (OAT) console. OAT of earlier versions cannot be smoothly upgraded to the new version because the new version has been restructured. Therefore, you must use OAT of the new version to take over the services and components deployed by using OAT of earlier versions. This way, you can monitor the status of the services and components and manage their upgrades.

Prerequisites

Before you take over OCP, make sure that the following conditions are met:

• You have added the image of OCP.
• You have taken over the components on which OCP relies.
• You have added a server to take over OCP. For more information, see Add a server.
• The server meets the requirements for taking over OCP. For more information, see Plan resources for OCP.
