# Configuring and managing a multi-AZ deployment
<a name="timestream-for-influx-managing-multi-az"></a>

Timestream for InfluxDB Multi-AZ deployments can only have one standby. When the deployment has one standby DB instance, it's called a Multi-AZ DB instance deployment. A Multi-AZ DB instance deployment has one standby DB instance that provides failover support, but doesn't serve read traffic. 

**Important**  
Your instance must have at least two subnets associated with it to execute Single-AZ to Multi-AZ updates. Once the instance is created, you can't modify its deployment mode from Single-AZ to Multi-AZ .

You can use the AWS Management Console to determine whether your DB instance is a Single-AZ or Multi-AZ deployment.

**Using the AWS Management Console**

1. Sign in to the AWS Management Console and open the [Amazon Timestream for InfluxDB console](https://console.aws.amazon.com/timestream/).

1. In the navigation pane, choose **InfluxDB databases**, and then choose **DB identifier**.

A Multi-AZ DB instance deployment has the following characteristics:
+ There is only one row for the DB instance.
+ The value of Role is Instance or Primary.
+ The value of Multi-AZ is Yes.
