Enabling or Disabling a Load Balancer

You can enable or disable a load balancer at any time. The load balancer stops receiving and routing traffic after it is disabled.

If some load balancers are not required but cannot be deleted, you can disable them.

This feature is available in certain regions. You can see which regions support them on the console.

Procedure

  1. Go to the load balancer list page.
  2. Locate the load balancer and choose More > Enable or More > Disable.
  3. Click OK.
  4. Check the status of the target load balancer in the Status column on the load balancer list page.

Disabled load balancers will still be billed.
