UpdateZonalShift

Update an active zonal shift in Amazon Route 53 Application Recovery Controller in your Amazon Web Services account. You can update a zonal shift to set a new expiration, or edit or replace the comment for the zonal shift.

Request Syntax

PATCH /zonalshifts/zonalShiftId HTTP/1.1 Content-type: application/json { "comment": "string", "expiresIn": "string" }

URI Request Parameters

The request uses the following URI parameters.

zonalShiftId

The identifier of a zonal shift.

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 6. Maximum length of 36.

Pattern: ^[A-Za-z0-9-]+$

Required: Yes

Request Body

The request accepts the following data in JSON format.

comment

A comment that you enter about the zonal shift. Only the latest comment is retained; no comment history is maintained. A new comment overwrites any existing comment string.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 0. Maximum length of 128.

Required: No

expiresIn

The length of time that you want a zonal shift to be active, which Route 53 ARC converts to an expiry time (expiration time). Zonal shifts are temporary. You can set a zonal shift to be active initially for up to three days (72 hours).

If you want to still keep traffic away from an Availability Zone, you can update the zonal shift and set a new expiration. You can also cancel a zonal shift, before it expires, for example, if you're ready to restore traffic to the Availability Zone.

To set a length of time for a zonal shift to be active, specify a whole number, and then one of the following, with no space:

  • A lowercase letter m: To specify that the value is in minutes.

  • A lowercase letter h: To specify that the value is in hours.

For example: 20h means the zonal shift expires in 20 hours. 120m means the zonal shift expires in 120 minutes (2 hours).

Type: String

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 2. Maximum length of 5.

Pattern: ^([1-9][0-9]*)(m|h)$

Required: No

Response Syntax

HTTP/1.1 200 Content-type: application/json { "awayFrom": "string", "comment": "string", "expiryTime": number, "resourceIdentifier": "string", "startTime": number, "status": "string", "zonalShiftId": "string" }

Response Elements

If the action is successful, the service sends back an HTTP 200 response.

The following data is returned in JSON format by the service.

awayFrom

The Availability Zone (for example, use1-az1) that traffic is moved away from for a resource when you start a zonal shift. Until the zonal shift expires or you cancel it, traffic for the resource is instead moved to other Availability Zones in the Amazon Web Services Region.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 0. Maximum length of 20.

comment

A comment that you enter about the zonal shift. Only the latest comment is retained; no comment history is maintained. A new comment overwrites any existing comment string.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 0. Maximum length of 128.

expiryTime

The expiry time (expiration time) for a customer-initiated zonal shift. A zonal shift is temporary and must be set to expire when you start the zonal shift. You can initially set a zonal shift to expire in a maximum of three days (72 hours). However, you can update a zonal shift to set a new expiration at any time.

When you start a zonal shift, you specify how long you want it to be active, which Route 53 ARC converts to an expiry time (expiration time). You can cancel a zonal shift when you're ready to restore traffic to the Availability Zone, or just wait for it to expire. Or you can update the zonal shift to specify another length of time to expire in.
