Modifying the Basic Configurations of a Dedicated Load Balancer
After a dedicated load balancer is created, you can change its specifications and AZ as required.
Modifying Specifications
You can change the specifications of a dedicated load balancer on the console:
- Change the elastic specifications to fixed specifications, or the other way round.
- Change the application load balancing to network load balancing, or the other way round.
You must keep at least one load balancing type. Before removing a load balancing type, you must delete the:
- HTTP or HTTPS listeners added to an application load balancer.
- TCP or UDP listeners added to a network load balancer.
- Upgrade or downgrade the fixed specifications, for example, upgrade small I to medium I, or downgrade large I to medium I.
Change options vary by billing mode. To find out what changes you can make, see Table 1.
Note
- Upgrading specifications does not interrupt your services.
- Downgrading specifications will temporarily disconnect services.
- Network load balancing (TCP/UDP): New connections may not be able to be established.
- Application load balancing (HTTP/HTTPS): New connections may not be able to be established and some persistent connections may be interrupted.
