Updating a Backend Server Group

Function

This API is used to update a backend server group.

Constraints

The backend server group can be updated only when the provisioning status of the associated load balancer is ACTIVE.

URI

PUT /v3/{project_id}/elb/pools/{pool_id}

Table 1 Path parameters
Parameter Mandatory Type Description
pool_id Yes String Specifies the backend server group ID.
project_id Yes String Specifies the project ID.

Request Parameters

Table 2 Request body parameters
Parameter Mandatory Type Description
pool Yes UpdatePoolOption object Specifies the backend server group.
Table 3 UpdatePoolOption
Parameter Mandatory Type Description
admin_state_up No Boolean

Specifies the administrative status of the backend server group. The value can only be updated to true.

This parameter is unsupported. Please do not use it.

description No String

Provides supplementary information about the backend server group.

Minimum: 0

Maximum: 255

lb_algorithm No String

Specifies the load balancing algorithm used by the load balancer to route requests to backend servers.

The value can be one of the following:

  • ROUND_ROBIN: weighted round robin
  • LEAST_CONNECTIONS: weighted least connections
  • SOURCE_IP: source IP hash

When the value is SOURCE_IP, the weights of backend servers are invalid.

name No String

Specifies the backend server group name.

Minimum: 0

Maximum: 255

session_persistence No UpdatePoolSess ionPersistenceOption <#Upda tePool__request_UpdatePoolS essionPersistenceOption>__ object Specifies whether to enable sticky sessions.
slow_start No UpdatePoolSlowStartOpti on <#UpdatePool__request_Up datePoolSlowStartOption>__ object

Specifies whether to enable slow start. After you enable slow start, new backend servers added to the backend server group are warmed up, and the number of requests they can receive increases linearly during the configured slow start duration.

This parameter can be used when the protocol of the backend server group is HTTP or HTTPS. An error will be returned if the protocol is not HTTP or HTTPS.

This parameter is unsupported. Please do not use it.

Table 4 UpdatePoolSessionPersistenceOption
Parameter Mandatory Type Description
cookie_name No String

Specifies the cookie name.

This parameter will take effect only when type is set to APP_COOKIE. Otherwise, an error will be returned.

The value can contain only letters, digits, hyphens (-), underscores (_), and periods (.).

Minimum: 0

Maximum: 1024

type Yes String

Specifies the sticky session type. The value can be SOURCE_IP, HTTP_COOKIE, or APP_COOKIE.

  • If the protocol of the backend server group is TCP or UDP, only SOURCE_IP takes effect.
  • For dedicated load balancers, if the protocol of the backend server group is HTTP or HTTPS, the value can only be HTTP_COOKIE.
  • For shared load balancers, if the protocol of the backend server group is HTTP or HTTPS, the value can be HTTP_COOKIE or APP_COOKIE.
persistence_timeout No Integer

Specifies the stickiness duration, in minutes.

This parameter will not take effect when type is set to APP_COOKIE.

  • If the protocol of the backend server group is TCP or UDP, the value ranges from 1 to 60, and the default value is 1.
  • If the protocol of the backend server group is HTTP or HTTPS, the value ranges from 1 to 1440, and the default value is 1440.
Table 5 UpdatePoolSlowStartOption
Parameter Mandatory Type Description
enable Yes Boolean

Specifies whether slow start is enabled.

true indicates that slow start is enabled, and false indicates slow start is disabled.

Default: false

duration Yes Integer

Specifies the slow start duration, in seconds.

The value ranges from 30 to 1200, and the default value is 30.

Minimum: 30

Maximum: 1200

Default: 30

Response Parameters

Status code: 200

Table 6 Response body parameters
Parameter Type Description
request_id String Specifies the request ID. The value is automatically generated.
pool Pool object Specifies the backend server group.
Table 7 Pool
Parameter Type Description
admin_state_up Boolean

Specifies the administrative status of the backend server group. The value can only be updated to true.

This parameter is unsupported. Please do not use it.

Default: true

description String Provides supplementary information about the backend server group.
healthmonitor_id String Specifies the ID of the health check configured for the backend server group.
id String Specifies the backend server group ID.
lb_algorithm String

Specifies the load balancing algorithm used by the load balancer to route requests to backend servers in the backend server group.

The value can be ROUND_ROBIN (weighted round robin), LEAST_CONNECTIONS (weighted least connections), or SOURCE_IP (source IP hash).

When the value is SOURCE_IP, the weight parameter is invalid.

listeners Array of ListenerRef < #UpdatePool__response_ListenerRef>__ objects Lists the listeners associated with the backend server group.
loadbalancers Array of LoadBalancerRef <#Upd atePool__response_LoadBalancerRef>__ objects

Lists the IDs of load balancers associated with the backend server group.

If only listener_id is specified during the creation of the backend server group, the ID of the loadbalancers parameter in the response is the ID of the load balancer to which the listener is added.

members Array of MemberRef objects Lists the backend servers in the backend server group.
name String Specifies the backend server group name.
project_id String Specifies the project ID.
protocol String

Specifies the protocol used by the backend server group to receive requests. The protocol can be TCP, UDP, or HTTP.

  • For UDP listeners, the protocol of the backend server group must be UDP.
  • For TCP listeners, the protocol of the backend server group must be TCP.
  • For HTTP or HTTPS listeners, the protocol of the backend server group must be HTTP.
session_persistence SessionPersistence <#Update Pool__response_SessionPersistence>__ object Specifies the sticky session.
ip_version String

Specifies the IP version supported by the backend server group.

  • Shared load balancers: The default value is v4.
  • Dedicated load balancers: The value can be dualstack, v4, or v6.

When the protocol of the backend server group is TCP or UDP, ip_version is set to dualstack, indicating that both IPv4 and IPv6 are supported.

When the protocol of the backend server group is HTTP, ip_version is set to v4.

IPv6 is unsupported. Only v4 is returned.

Default: dualstack

slow_start SlowStart object

Specifies whether to enable slow start. After you enable slow start, new backend servers added to the backend server group are warmed up, and the number of requests they can receive increases linearly during the configured slow start duration.

This parameter can be used when the protocol of the backend server group is HTTP or HTTPS. An error will be returned if the protocol is not HTTP or HTTPS.

This parameter is unsupported. Please do not use it.
