Synopsis

  create-load-balancer-policy
--load-balancer-name <value>

Options

--load-balancer-name (string)

The name of the load balancer.

--policy-name (string)

The name of the load balancer policy to be created. This name must be unique within the set of policies for this load balancer.

--policy-type-name (string)

The name of the base policy type. To get the list of policy types, use DescribeLoadBalancerPolicyTypes .

--policy-attributes (list)

The policy attributes.

(structure)

Information about a policy attribute.

AttributeName -> (string)

The name of the attribute.

AttributeValue -> (string)

The value of the attribute.

Shorthand Syntax:

AttributeName=string,AttributeValue=string ...

JSON Syntax:

[
  {
    "AttributeName": "string",
    "AttributeValue": "string"
  }
  ...
]

--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml (string) Reads arguments from the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton. If other arguments are provided on the command line, those values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally. This may not be specified along with --cli-input-yaml.

--generate-cli-skeleton (string) Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value input, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for --cli-input-json. Similarly, if provided yaml-input it will print a sample input YAML that can be used with --cli-input-yaml. If provided with the value output, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command.
