The answer is clearly D. 6 ECS instances will be added. What's the point of setting a maximum if you're not going to use it? I bet the person who wrote this question is an Alibaba Cloud salesperson trying to trick us into buying more resources than we need.

I think the answer is C. 4 ECS instances will be added, because the current number of instances is 3, and the scaling rule is to add 6 instances. So, the total number of instances will be 3 + 6 = 9, which is more than the maximum of 7, so it will only add 4 instances to reach the maximum of 7.

So the correct answer is D) 6, that makes sense based on the customer's configuration.

The correct answer is D. 6 ECS instances will be added to the scaling group when the scheduled task is activated. The scaling group has a minimum of 2 instances and a maximum of 7 instances, and the scaling rule is to add 6 instances. Since there are already 3 instances in the group, adding 6 more will bring the total to 9, which is within the maximum limit of 7.

I agree with Kristofer, the scheduled task will add 6 ECS instances to the scaling group.
