Modifying Slow Start Settings (Dedicated Load Balancers)

Scenario

This section describes how you can modify the slow start settings.

For details, see Slow Start (Dedicated Load Balancers).

  • This section applies only to dedicated load balancers.
  • You can also configure slow start when adding a listener or creating a backend server group.

Enabling Slow Start

  1. Log in to the management console.
  2. In the upper left corner of the page, click and select the desired region and project.
  3. Hover on in the upper left corner to display Service List and choose Network > Elastic Load Balance.
  4. In the navigation pane on the left, choose Elastic Load Balance > Backend Server Groups.
  5. On the Backend Server Groups page, locate the backend server group and click Edit in the Operation column.
  6. In the Modify Backend Server Group dialog box, enable slow start and set the slow start duration.
