Services or capabilities described in Amazon Web Services documentation might vary by Region. To see the differences applicable to the China Regions, see Getting Started with Amazon Web Services in China (PDF).

Inverting health checks

If you invert a health check, Route 53 considers the health check to be unhealthy when the status is healthy and vice versa.

Note

We're updating the health checks console for Route 53. During the transition period, you can continue to use the old console.

You can invert a health check on the old console when you create or edit the health check. For more information, see Values that you specify when you create or update health checks.

To invert health checks on the new console, perform the following procedure.

To invert a health check (new console only)

  1. Sign in to the Amazon Web Services Management Console and open the Route 53 console at https://console.amazonaws.cn/route53/.

  2. In the navigation pane, choose Health checks.

  3. In the Actions column select the three dots and then Invert.

    Or- select the linked ID of the health check that you want to invert.

  4. On the Configuration table, the Inverted filed specifies whether the health check is inverted (Yes) or not (No).

  5. Choose Invert to invert the health check.

    If you want to undo the inverted status, and the Inverted field is Yes, choose Invert again.
