Scope

This document describes commands that will be introduced into python-quantumclient in order to support LBaaS advanced service.

Implementation Details

All LBaaS commands have prefix lb- in order to avoid ambiguity. The set of commands corresponds to Quantum/LBaaS/API_1.0:

  lb-healthmonitor-create        Create a health monitor

  lb-healthmonitor-show          Show information of a given health monitor
  lb-healthmonitor-update        Update health monitor's information

  lb-healthmonitor-associate     Associate a health monitor with a pool
  lb-healthmonitor-disassociate  Disassociate a health monitor with a pool

  lb-member-create               Create a member
  lb-member-delete               Delete a given member
  lb-member-list                 List members that belong to a given tenant
  lb-member-show                 Show information of a given member
  lb-member-update               Update member's information

Command Specification

lb-healthmonitor-create

Create a new health monitor object.

lb-healthmonitor-create --type <type> --delay <delay> --max_retries <max_retries> --timeout <timeout> [--http_method <http method>] [--path <path>] [--expected-codes <expected codes>] [--tenant-id <tenant id>]

• type: One of predefined health monitor types
• delay: This is the minimum time in seconds between regular connections of the member.
• timeout: Maximum number of seconds for a monitor to wait for a connection to be established before it times out. The value must be less than the delay value.
• max_retries: Number of permissible connection failures before changing the member's status to INACTIVE. Must be a number between 1 and 10.
• http_method: The HTTP method used for requests by the monitor of type HTTP. If this attribute is not specified, it defaults to "GET".
• url_path: The HTTP path used in the HTTP request used by the monitor to test a member's health. This must be a string beginning with a / (forward slash). If this is not specified it defaults to "/".
• expected_codes: These are the list of HTTP status codes expected in response from the member to declare it healthy. This attribute can contain one value, or a list of values separated by comma, or a range of values (e.g. "200-299"). If this attribute is not specified, it defaults to "200".
• tenant-id: ID of tenant that owns the health monitor
