Huawei Cloud SWR Enterprise Instance Management
Overview
This skill provides lifecycle management capabilities for Huawei Cloud SWR (Software Repository for Container) enterprise instances using the hcloud CLI. Enterprise instances provide dedicated, isolated container registry environments with advanced features like security scanning, replication policies, and custom domain support.
Architecture: hcloud CLI → SWR Service API → Instance/Namespace/Registry/Repository/Artifact/Credential/Endpoint/Domain resources

Prerequisites
1. hcloud CLI Requirements (MANDATORY)
- hcloud CLI installed (version >= 7.2.2)
- Run
hcloud versionto verify installation - First-time usage:
printf "y\n" | hcloud versionto accept privacy statement
2. Credential Configuration
hcloud CLI supports two credential modes. See references/credential-configuration.md for full details.
Quick setup (choose one):
# Mode A — Long-term AK/SK
export HUAWEI_CLOUD_AK=<your-ak>
export HUAWEI_CLOUD_SK=<your-sk>
export HUAWEI_CLOUD_REGION=cn-north-4
# Mode B — Temporary AK/SK + SecurityToken
export HUAWEI_CLOUD_AK=<your-temp-ak>
export HUAWEI_CLOUD_SK=<your-temp-sk>
export HUAWEI_CLOUD_SECURITY_TOKEN=<your-security-token>
export HUAWEI_CLOUD_REGION=cn-north-4
- Security rules: Never expose AK/SK/SecurityToken values. Use
hcloud configure listto check presence only.
3. SWR Enterprise Service Activation (MANDATORY)
Before creating SWR enterprise instances, the user must first activate the SWR enterprise service in the Huawei Cloud console. This is a one-time enablement step per account/region.
Activation Steps:
- Access the SWR enterprise instance console via direct URL:
https://console.huaweicloud.com/swr-instance- Important: The SWR enterprise instance console is not available from the main console navigation menu. Users must use this direct URL to access it.
- If prompted, review and accept the SWR enterprise service terms
- Confirm the service is activated by verifying the console loads successfully
- If activation is not available in the target region, the console will display an error or the service will not be listed
Verification: After activation, run hcloud SWR ListInstance --cli-region=<region> — if the service is activated, this returns an empty list (or existing instances). If not activated, an error will be returned.
Console Access:
- SWR Enterprise Instance Console:
https://console.huaweicloud.com/swr-instance - This URL provides access to instance management, namespace configuration, repository browsing, and replication policy setup
- The console is region-aware — select the target region in the top-right corner after opening the URL

Core Commands
1. Instance Lifecycle
See Task: Instance Lifecycle for detailed workflows.
# Create an enterprise instance
hcloud SWR CreateInstance --name=my-instance --spec=swr.ee.professional --charge_mode=postPaid --vpc_id=<vpc-id> --subnet_id=<subnet-id> --enterprise_project_id=0 --cli-region=cn-north-4
# List all instances
hcloud SWR ListInstance --cli-region=cn-north-4
# List instances with status filter
hcloud SWR ListInstance --status=Running --cli-region=cn-north-4
# Show instance details
# Show instance details
hcloud SWR ShowInstance --instance_id=<instance-id> --cli-region=cn-north-4
**Note**: `ShowInstance` does not return endpoint information. To view network access endpoints, use:
- `hcloud SWR ListInstanceInternalEndpoints --instance_id=<instance-id> --cli-region=cn-north-4` for internal VPC endpoints
- `hcloud SWR ShowInstanceEndpointPolicy --instance_id=<instance-id> --cli-region=cn-north-4` for public access status and whitelist
# View instance configuration
hcloud SWR ShowInstanceConfiguration --instance_id=<instance-id> --cli-region=cn-north-4
# Update instance configuration (anonymous access)
# Update instance configuration (anonymous access)
hcloud SWR UpdateInstanceConfiguration --instance_id=<instance-id> --anonymous_access=false --cli-region=cn-north-4
**Configuration Scope**: `UpdateInstanceConfiguration` only supports the `--anonymous_access` parameter (boolean). This is the sole instance-level configuration option available via API. Other settings (spec, VPC, encryption) are set at creation time and cannot be modified afterward.
# Delete instance (CAUTION: removes all data permanently)
hcloud SWR DeleteInstance --instance_id=<instance-id> --cli-region=cn-north-4
Instance Naming Rules:
- Start with lowercase letter
- Followed by lowercase letters, digits, or hyphens (
-) - No consecutive hyphens
- Cannot end with hyphen
- Length: 3-48 characters
Instance Spec Options: swr.ee.basic (basic edition), swr.ee.professional (professional edition)
Spec and Region Availability:
- Not all specs (flavors) are available in all regions. Before creating an instance, verify that the desired spec is supported in the target region.
- Use
hcloud SWR ListInstance --cli-region=<region>to check if the SWR enterprise service is available in a region. If the API returns an error, the service may not be available in that region. - Use
hcloud SWR ListSyncRegions --cli-region=<region>to list regions where SWR service is available for cross-region sync. - Common regions with SWR enterprise support include:
cn-north-4,cn-north-1,cn-east-3,cn-south-1,cn-east-2,cn-southwest-2,cn-north-9,ap-southeast-1,ap-southeast-2,ap-southeast-3. - If instance creation fails with spec/region errors, try a different spec or region. The error message will indicate if the spec is not supported in the target region.
Billing Details:
- WARNING: Creating an SWR enterprise instance incurs hourly costs. The user must be informed of this before proceeding.
--charge_mode: OnlypostPaid(on-demand/pay-as-you-go) is supported. No prepaid or annual/monthly billing available.--spec=swr.ee.basic: Basic edition — suitable for small teams, limited features. Lower hourly cost.--spec=swr.ee.professional: Professional edition — full features including security scanning, replication, custom domains. Higher hourly cost.- Costs are incurred per hour based on instance spec. No upfront payment required. Billing starts when the instance enters
Runningstatus. - To stop billing: delete the instance with
hcloud SWR DeleteInstance. Billing stops immediately after deletion. - Use
--enterprise_project_idto associate the instance with an enterprise project for cost tracking and attribution. - For detailed pricing information, refer to the Huawei Cloud SWR pricing page or consult the SWR enterprise instance console at
https://console.huaweicloud.com/swr-instance.

Best Practices
- Instance naming: Use descriptive names like
prod-instance,dev-instancethat reflect the environment - VPC selection: Choose VPC/subnet that matches your workload deployment environment
- Namespace security: Enable
auto_scan=trueandprevent_vul=truefor production namespaces to block vulnerable images - Severity blocking: Set
severity=highorcriticalfor production; usenoneorlowfor development - Registry credentials: Store registry credentials securely; rotate access keys periodically
- Public access whitelist: Always configure IP whitelist when enabling public access; use
UpdateInstanceEndpointPolicyfor full whitelist management - Custom domains: Use SCM (SSL Certificate Manager) certificates for custom domain HTTPS
- Delete with caution: Deleting an instance removes ALL data permanently; deleting a namespace removes ALL repositories
- Long-term credentials: Use
CreateInstanceLtCredentialfor CI/CD pipelines; useCreateInstanceTempCredentialfor temporary access - Instance spec selection: Use
swr.ee.basicfor small teams;swr.ee.professionalfor enterprise requirements with advanced features
参数确认
| Operation | CLI Command | Risk Level | Confirmation Required |
|---|---|---|---|
| CreateInstance | hcloud SWR CreateInstance | High | Creating a paid instance incurs costs. Confirm instance spec (swr.ee.basic or swr.ee.professional), VPC/subnet configuration, and enterprise project before proceeding. |
| UpdateInstanceConfiguration | hcloud SWR UpdateInstanceConfiguration --anonymous_access=true | High | Enabling anonymous access allows unauthenticated users to pull images, reducing security. Confirm this is intended before proceeding. |
| CreateInstanceEndpointPolicy | hcloud SWR CreateInstanceEndpointPolicy --enable=true | Medium | Enabling public access exposes the instance to the internet. Must configure IP whitelist via UpdateInstanceEndpointPolicy to restrict access. Confirm before proceeding. |
| DeleteInstanceLtCredential | hcloud SWR DeleteInstanceLtCredential | Medium | Deleting a credential immediately revokes access for CI/CD pipelines using it. Recommend disabling the credential first (UpdateInstanceLtCredential --enable=false), verifying no active pipelines, then deleting. |
| CreateInstanceRegistry | hcloud SWR CreateInstanceRegistry | Medium | Creating a sync target registry stores the target registry authentication credentials (access_key/access_secret). Confirm the target registry URL and credential information before proceeding. |
Unsupported Operations
The following operations are not supported by the SWR enterprise instance API and require alternative approaches:
| Unsupported Operation | Reason | Alternative Approach |
|---|---|---|
| Push images to instance | Docker CLI operation, not an API call | Use CreateInstanceTempCredential or CreateInstanceLtCredential to get credentials, then docker login and docker push |
| Pull images from instance | Docker CLI operation, not an API call | Use CreateInstanceTempCredential or CreateInstanceLtCredential to get credentials, then docker login and docker pull |
| Build images | SWR is a registry, not a build service | Use CodeArts Build, CCE, or local Docker build, then push to SWR |
| Image replication/sync policies | Replication policy management is a separate API | Use SWR console or replication policy API directly |
| Instance backup/restore | No backup API available | Use OBS bucket backup for data persistence, or migrate namespaces/repositories manually |
工作流
This skill follows a standard workflow for SWR enterprise instance management:
- Prerequisites Check — Verify hcloud CLI installation and credential configuration
- Instance Identification — List or show existing instances to obtain
instance_id - Operation Execution — Execute the requested operation (create/update/delete/query)
- Result Verification — Confirm the operation succeeded by querying the resulting state
- Credential Management — For write operations, obtain and securely store any returned credentials
- Cleanup Confirmation — For destructive operations, confirm with the user before proceeding
KooCLI命令格式标准
All CLI commands in this skill use the hcloud KooCLI format:
hcloud SWR <Operation> --param1=value1 --param2=value2 --cli-region=<region>
Rules:
- Use
--key=valueformat for all parameters (dot notation supported for nested fields:--metadata.public=true) - Always specify
--cli-regionexplicitly - Never expose AK/SK or security tokens in command output
- For write operations (Create/Update/Delete), confirm with the user before executing
- Use
--cli-output=jsonfor structured output parsing

Notes
- Instance deletion is irreversible — removes ALL namespaces, repositories, artifacts, and data permanently
- Namespace deletion is irreversible — removes all repositories and artifacts under it
- Artifact deletion is irreversible — the image version cannot be recovered
- Default domain cannot be deleted — only custom domains can be removed
- AK/SK must never be hardcoded — credentials should only be obtained via environment variables
- hcloud CLI is the only supported method — all operations use
hcloud SWR <Operation>format - Pagination offset must be multiple of limit —
