lightsail_create_load_balancer: Creates a Lightsail load balancer

Description

Creates a Lightsail load balancer. To learn more about deciding whether to load balance your application, see Configure your Lightsail instances for load balancing. You can create up to 5 load balancers per AWS Region in your account.

See https://www.paws-r-sdk.com/docs/lightsail_create_load_balancer/ for full documentation.

Usage

lightsail_create_load_balancer(
  loadBalancerName,
  instancePort,
  healthCheckPath = NULL,
  certificateName = NULL,
  certificateDomainName = NULL,
  certificateAlternativeNames = NULL,
  tags = NULL,
  ipAddressType = NULL,
  tlsPolicyName = NULL
)

Arguments

loadBalancerName

[required] The name of your load balancer.

instancePort

[required] The instance port where you're creating your load balancer.

healthCheckPath

The path you provided to perform the load balancer health check. If you didn't specify a health check path, Lightsail uses the root path of your website ("/").

You may want to specify a custom health check path other than the root of your application if your home page loads slowly or has a lot of media or scripting on it.

certificateName

The name of the SSL/TLS certificate.

If you specify certificateName, then certificateDomainName is required (and vice-versa).

certificateDomainName

The domain name with which your certificate is associated (example.com).

If you specify certificateDomainName, then certificateName is required (and vice-versa).

certificateAlternativeNames

The optional alternative domains and subdomains to use with your SSL/TLS certificate (www.example.com, example.com, m.example.com, blog.example.com).

tags

The tag keys and optional values to add to the resource during create.

Use the tag_resource action to tag a resource after it's created.

ipAddressType

The IP address type for the load balancer.

The possible values are ipv4 for IPv4 only, ipv6 for IPv6 only, and dualstack for IPv4 and IPv6.

The default value is dualstack.

tlsPolicyName

The name of the TLS policy to apply to the load balancer.

Use the get_load_balancer_tls_policies action to get a list of TLS policy names that you can specify.

For more information about load balancer TLS policies, see Configuring TLS security policies on your Amazon Lightsail load balancers in the Amazon Lightsail Developer Guide.
