Load Balancer Migration

The network of a load balancer cannot be changed, so you need to create a new load balancer in the SDN Sprut and configure it. To migrate a load balancer to SDN Sprut:

  1. Create a new load balancer and specify the parameters:

    • Load balancer name: the name of the load balancer, for example, if the original load balancer in SDN Neutron was named my-load-balancer, you can use the name my-load-balancer-sprut.
    • Network: the name of the target SDN Sprut.
    • Leave the remaining parameters as default.
  2. Create load balancing rules and copy their parameters from the original load balancer in SDN Neutron.

  3. Delete the original load balancer if you no longer need it.

You can also migrate load balancers using the following methods:

  • Recreate the load balancer using Terraform by specifying SDN Sprut in the manifest description, and connect the virtual machines after their migration.
  • Run the VK Cloud script for migrating load balancers on any machine with network access to the required project where you have the administrator role.
