LXC.NETWORK.LOAD-BALANCER.BACKEND.ADD(1)

💅 NAME 💅

lxc-network-load-balancer-backend-add — ok so this is the glow-up command that adds backends to a load balancer. bestie, it's literally the "put this server in the rotation" button ✨

(this whole page lives under the LXD - Command line client(1) manual, iykyk 🦋)

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

lxc network load-balancer backend add [:]    [] [flags]

that's it. that's the whole shape of it. no cap 💅

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

Description:

Add backend to a load balancer 🫶

like… that's the entire vibe. you point it at a load balancer and it goes "say less" and appends your backend to the list. main character energy, zero drama 🌸

👑 OPTIONS 👑

• --target="" — Cluster member name. defaults to empty (""), so if you leave it blank you're just talking to whatever member you're pointed at. 🎯

🌈 OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS 🌈

these aren't even this command's options, they're passed down from the parent command and they show up here anyway, like cousins at a wedding 💀 all of them default to false unless they're a string, and all of them exist, so here we go:

• --debug[=false] — show all debug messages. the "tell me EVERYTHING" switch 🐛
• --force-local[=false] — force using the local unix socket. no network, just the local socket, periodt 🔌
• -h, --help[=false] — print help. the friendliest flag of them all 🫶
• --project="" — override the source project. defaults to "". tell it which project you actually meant 🗂️
• -q, --quiet[=false] — don't show progress information. for when the progress bar is giving too much 🤫
• --sub-commands[=false] — use with help or --help to view sub-commands 🔍
• -v, --verbose[=false] — show all information messages. the chatty one 💬
• --version[=false] — print version number 🏷️
