Editing a Load Balancer's Backend Set

Update the configuration of a backend set for a load balancer.

When you edit a backed set, you can select a new load balancing policy and change the SSL configuration. To change the backend set's health check policy, see Health Check Policies for Load Balancers for more information.

To add or remove backend servers from the backend set, see Backend Servers for Load Balancers for more information.

Note

Changing the load balancing policy of a backend set temporarily interrupts traffic and can drop active connections.

1. On the Load balancers list page, select the load balancer that you want to work with. If you need help finding the list page or the load balancer, see Listing Load Balancers.
2. On the load balancer's details page, select Backend sets.
  The Backend sets section opens. All backend sets in the selected load balancer are displayed in a table.
3. From the Actions menu for the backend set, select Edit.
4. Edit any of the following:
  
  Traffic distribution policy
  
  SSL
  
  Session persistence
  
  Max Backend Connections
  
  See Creating a Backend Set for more information.
5. Select Update backend set.
Use the oci lb backend-set update command and required parameters to update the configuration of a backend set for a load balancer:
