Supported Request Parameter

  • pretty

Update a server

The :name in the URI must map to a server name with all whitespace replaced with hyphens and the request body must be a valid JSON document representing the modified server. If the server in question is not found, a 404 Not Found response is returned.

PUT /servers/:name

Modifiable Fields

The following standard server parameter can be modified.

Refer to the documentation on these parameters for valid values.

The server weighting parameters can also be added, removed and updated. To remove a parameter, define the value of that parameter as the null JSON type e.g. { "my-param": null }. To add a parameter, add a new key-value pair to the parameters object with a name that does not conflict with the standard parameters. To modify a weighting parameter, simply change the value.

In addition to standard parameters, the services and monitors fields of the relationships object can be modified. Removal, addition and modification of the links will change which service and monitors use this server.

For example, removing the first value in the services list in the relationships object from the following JSON document will remove the server1 from the service RW-Split-Router.

Removing a service from a server is analogous to removing the server from the service. Both unlink the two objects from each other.
