Table 4 UpdateLoadBalancerOption

Parameter

Mandatory

Type

Description

name

No

String

Specifies the load balancer name.

admin_state_up

No

Boolean

Specifies whether the load balancer is enabled.

Value options:

description

No

String

Provides supplementary information about the load balancer.

ipv6_vip_virsubnet_id

No

String

Specifies the ID of the IPv6 subnet where the load balancer resides.

You can query parameter neutron_network_id in the response by calling the API (GET https://{VPC_Endpoint}/v1/{project_id}/subnets).

Note:

  • The IPv6 subnet can be updated using ipv6_vip_virsubnet_id, and the private IPv6 address of the load balancer will be changed accordingly.

  • This parameter will be passed only when IPv6 is enabled for the subnet. The subnet specified by ipv6_vip_virsubnet_id must be in the VPC specified by vpc_id.

  • This parameter can be updated only when guaranteed is set to true.

  • The value will become null if the IPv6 address is unbound from the load balancer.

  • The IPv4 subnet will not change, if IPv6 subnet is updated.

vip_subnet_cidr_id

No

String

Specifies the ID of the IPv4 subnet where the load balancer resides.

You can query parameter neutron_subnet_id in the response by calling the API (GET https://{VPC_Endpoint}/v1/{project_id}/subnets).

Note:

  • The IPv4 subnet can be updated using vip_subnet_cidr_id, and the private IPv4 address of the load balancer will be changed accordingly.

    Note:

  • If vip_address is also specified, the IP address specified by vip_address must be in the subnet specified by vip_subnet_cidr_id and will be used as the private IPv4 address of the load balancer.

  • The IPv4 subnet must be in the VPC where the load balancer resides.

  • This parameter can be updated only when guaranteed is set to true.

  • The value will become null if the private IPv4 address is unbound from the load balancer.

  • The IPv6 subnet will not change, if IPv4 subnet is updated.

vip_address

No

String

Specifies the private IPv4 address bound to the load balancer.

Note:

  • The IP address must be from the IPv4 subnet where the load balancer resides and should not be occupied by other services.

  • vip_address can be updated only when guaranteed is set to true.

l4_flavor_id

No

String

Specifies the ID of a flavor at Layer 4.

Note:

l7_flavor_id

No

String

Specifies the ID of a flavor at Layer 7.

Note:

ipv6_bandwidth

No

Specifies the ID of the bandwidth used by an IPv6 address.

Note:

This parameter is available only when you create or update a load balancer with a public IPv6 address. If you use a new IPv6 address and specify a shared bandwidth, the IPv6 address will be added to the shared bandwidth.

ip_target_enable

No

Boolean

Specifies whether to add backend servers that are not in the load balancer's VPC.

Value options:

  • true: Enable IP as a Backend.

  • false: Disable IP as a Backend.

Note:

  • The value can only be updated to true.

  • If you need to connect your server to a shared VPC, ensure the VPC principal has created a VPC peering connections between the two VPCs.

elb_virsubnet_ids

No

Array of strings

Specifies the IDs of subnets on the downstream plane.

You can query parameter neutron_network_id in the response by calling the API (GET https://{VPC_Endpoint}/v1/{project_id}/subnets).

Note:

  • If the IDs of the subnets required by the load balancer are specified in elb_virsubnet_ids, the subnets will still be bound to the load balancer.

  • If the IDs of the subnets are specified in elb_virsubnet_ids, but not on the downstream plane, a new load balancer will be bound to the downstream plane.

  • If the IDs of the subnets required by the load balancer are not specified in elb_virsubnet_ids, the subnets will be unbound from the load balancers. Do not unbound the subnets that have been used by the load balancer. Otherwise, an error will be returned.

  • All subnets belong to the same VPC where the load balancer resides.

  • Edge subnets are not supported.

deletion_protection_enable

No

Boolean

Specifies whether to enable deletion protection.

Value options:

  • true: Enable deletion protection.

  • false: Disable deletion protection.
