A customer uses Alibaba Cloud Auto Scaling service and creates a scaling group. They set the "Minimum number of instances" to 6 and the "Maximum number of instances" to 8. After correctly configuring scaling settings, the customer adds a scaling rule ''Adjust to 10 ECS instances'' and creates a scheduled task based on this rule. Then, the customer checks the scaling group and sees it already contains 6 valid ECS instances. They then enable this scaling group immediately. How many ECS instances will be in the scaling group when the scheduled task is activated once?
Even though the scaling rule is set to 'Adjust to 10 ECS instances,' the maximum instance limit set for the scaling group is 8. Thus, when the scheduled task is triggered, Auto Scaling will increase the number of instances up to the maximum allowed, which is 8. Therefore, the scaling group will contain 8 instances, not 10, as it adheres to the defined maximum limit.
