Create or update a LBPersistenceProfile

If a LBPersistenceProfile with the lb-persistence-profile-id is not
already present, create a new LBPersistenceProfile. If it already exists,
update the LBPersistenceProfile. This is a full replace.
This API is only available when using VMware NSX-T.

LBCookiePersistenceProfile (schema)

Name	Description	Type	Notes
_create_time	Timestamp of resource creation	EpochMsTimestamp	Readonly Sortable
_create_user	ID of the user who created this resource	string	Readonly
_last_modified_time	Timestamp of last modification	EpochMsTimestamp	Readonly Sortable
_last_modified_user	ID of the user who last modified this resource	string	Readonly
_links	References related to this resource The server will populate this field when returing the resource. Ignored on PUT and POST.	array of ResourceLink	Readonly
_protection	Indicates protection status of this resource Protection status is one of the following: PROTECTED - the client who retrieved the entity is not allowed to modify it. NOT_PROTECTED - the client who retrieved the entity is allowed to modify it REQUIRE_OVERRIDE - the client who retrieved the entity is a super user and can modify it, but only when providing the request header X-Allow-Overwrite=true. UNKNOWN - the _protection field could not be determined for this entity.	string	Readonly
_revision	Generation of this resource config The _revision property describes the current revision of the resource. To prevent clients from overwriting each other's changes, PUT operations must include the current _revision of the resource, which clients should obtain by issuing a GET operation. If the _revision provided in a PUT request is missing or stale, the operation will be rejected.	int
_schema	Schema for this resource	string	Readonly
_self	Link to this resource	SelfResourceLink	Readonly
_system_owned	Indicates system owned resource	boolean	Readonly
children	subtree for this type within policy tree subtree for this type within policy tree containing nested elements.	array of ChildPolicyConfigResource Children are not allowed for this type
cookie_domain	Cookie domain HTTP cookie domain could be configured, only available for insert mode.	string
cookie_fallback	Cookie persistence fallback If fallback is true, once the cookie points to a server that is down (i.e. admin state DISABLED or healthcheck state is DOWN), then a new server is selected by default to handle that request. If fallback is false, it will cause the request to be rejected if cookie points to a server.	boolean	Default: "True"
cookie_garble	Cookie persistence garble If garble is set to true, cookie value (server IP and port) would be encrypted. If garble is set to false, cookie value would be plain text.	boolean	Default: "True"
cookie_mode	Cookie persistence mode Cookie persistence mode.	CookiePersistenceModeType	Default: "INSERT"
cookie_name	Cookie name Cookie name.	string	Default: "NSXLB"
cookie_path	Cookie path HTTP cookie path could be set, only available for insert mode.	string
cookie_time	Cookie time setting Both session cookie and persistence cookie are supported, if not specified, it's a session cookie. It expires when the browser is closed.	LBCookieTime (Abstract type: pass one of the following concrete types) LBPersistenceCookieTime LBSessionCookieTime
description	Description of this resource	string	Maximum length: 1024 Sortable
display_name	Identifier to use when displaying entity in logs or GUI Defaults to ID if not set	string	Maximum length: 255 Sortable
id	Unique identifier of this resource	string	Sortable
marked_for_delete	Indicates whether the intent object is marked for deletion Intent objects are not directly deleted from the system when a delete is invoked on them. They are marked for deletion and only when all the realized entities for that intent object gets deleted, the intent object is deleted. Objects that are marked for deletion are not returned in GET call. One can use the search API to get these objects.	boolean	Readonly Default: "False"
overridden	Indicates whether this object is the overridden intent object Global intent objects cannot be modified by the user. However, certain global intent objects can be overridden locally by use of this property. In such cases, the overridden local values take precedence over the globally defined values for the properties.	boolean	Readonly Default: "False"
parent_path	Path of its parent Path of its parent	string	Readonly
path	Absolute path of this object Absolute path of this object	string	Readonly
persistence_shared	Persistence shared across LBVirtualServers Persistence shared setting indicates that all LBVirtualServers that consume this LBPersistenceProfile should share the same persistence mechanism when enabled. Meaning, persistence entries of a client accessing one virtual server will also affect the same client's connections to a different virtual server. For example, say there are two virtual servers vip-ip1:80 and vip-ip1:8080 bound to the same Group g1 consisting of two servers (s11:80 and s12:80). By default, each virtual server will have its own persistence table or cookie. So, in the earlier example, there will be two tables (vip-ip1:80, p1) and (vip-ip1:8080, p1) or cookies. So, if a client connects to vip1:80 and later connects to vip1:8080, the second connection may be sent to a different server than the first. When persistence_shared is enabled, then the second connection will always connect to the same server as the original connection. For COOKIE persistence type, the same cookie will be shared by multiple virtual servers. For SOURCE_IP persistence type, the persistence table will be shared across virtual servers. For GENERIC persistence type, the persistence table will be shared across virtual servers which consume the same persistence profile in LBRule actions.	boolean	Default: "False"
relative_path	Relative path of this object Path relative from its parent	string	Readonly
resource_type	Must be set to the value LBCookiePersistenceProfile	string	Required Enum: LBSourceIpPersistenceProfile, LBCookiePersistenceProfile, LBGenericPersistenceProfile
tags	Opaque identifiers meaningful to the API user	array of Tag	Maximum items: 30
unique_id	A unique identifier assigned by the system This is a UUID generated by the GM/LM to uniquely identify entites in a federated environment. For entities that are stretched across multiple sites, the same ID will be used on all the stretched sites.	string	Readonly
