About aliyun-alb-manage

A skill for managing Alibaba Cloud Application Load Balancer (ALB) through local Python scripts and OpenAPI-compatible workflows, aimed at cloud network operations. It covers inventory, health checks, and lifecycle operations for load balancers, listeners, server groups, and rules.

Key features

  1. 01Inventory instances, server groups, and ACLs
  2. 02Inspect load balancer and listener details
  3. 03Check traffic path and health status
  4. 04Create, update, and delete ALB resources
  5. 05Save pre- and post-change state and checks

Use cases

  1. 01Diagnose listener or server-group health
  2. 02Update listener settings and verify health
  3. 03Manage ALB, server-group, and rule lifecycles

Install

Copy the command and run it in a terminal.

Application Load Balancer (ALB)

Use this skill for end-to-end ALB operations via local Python scripts and OpenAPI-compatible workflows.

Validation

mkdir -p output/aliyun-alb-manage
for f in skills/network/slb/aliyun-alb-manage/scripts/*.py; do
  python3 -m py_compile "$f"
done
echo "py_compile_ok" > output/aliyun-alb-manage/validate.txt

Pass criteria: command exits 0 and output/aliyun-alb-manage/validate.txt is generated.

Output And Evidence

  • Save all command outputs, request parameters, and API responses under output/aliyun-alb-manage/.
  • For change operations, keep before/after snapshots plus health-check results.

Prerequisites

pip install alibabacloud_alb20200616 alibabacloud_tea_openapi alibabacloud_credentials

Credential priority:

  1. ALIBABACLOUD_ACCESS_KEY_ID / ALIBABACLOUD_ACCESS_KEY_SECRET
  2. Optional STS token: ALIBABACLOUD_SECURITY_TOKEN
  3. Shared config: ~/.alibabacloud/credentials

Workflow

  1. Confirm region, VPC context, target ALB resource IDs, and expected change window.
  2. Run inventory scripts first (list_*, get_*) and save baseline outputs.
  3. Apply one change at a time (listener/server-group/rule/lb lifecycle).
  4. Wait for async completion when needed (scripts/wait_for_job.py).
  5. Validate final state with health checks and state re-query.

Top task playbooks

1) Read-only inventory and quick diagnosis
python3 scripts/list_instances.py --region cn-hangzhou --json --output output/aliyun-alb-manage/instances.json
python3 scripts/list_server_groups.py --region cn-hangzhou --json --output output/aliyun-alb-manage/server-groups.json
python3 scripts/list_acls.py --region cn-hangzhou --json --output output/aliyun-alb-manage/acls.json
2) Inspect one ALB and listener details
python3 scripts/get_instance_status.py --region cn-hangzhou --lb-id alb-xxx --view detail --output output/aliyun-alb-manage/lb-detail.json
python3 scripts/list_listeners.py --region cn-hangzhou --lb-id alb-xxx --json --output output/aliyun-alb-manage/listeners.json
python3 scripts/get_listener_attribute.py --region cn-hangzhou --listener-id lsn-xxx --output output/aliyun-alb-manage/listener-attr.json
3) Validate traffic path health
python3 scripts/check_health_status.py --region cn-hangzhou --listener-id lsn-xxx --output output/aliyun-alb-manage/health.json
python3 scripts/list_server_group_servers.py --region cn-hangzhou --server-group-id sgp-xxx --output output/aliyun-alb-manage/server-group-members.json
4) Controlled change flow (example: update listener)
python3 scripts/update_listener.py --region cn-hangzhou --listener-id lsn-xxx --request-timeout 120 --output output/aliyun-alb-manage/update-listener.json
python3 scripts/check_health_status.py --region cn-hangzhou --listener-id lsn-xxx --output output/aliyun-alb-manage/health-after-update.json
5) Resource lifecycle operations
  • ALB lifecycle: create_load_balancer.py, delete_load_balancer.py, deletion_protection.py
  • Listener lifecycle: create_listener.py, start_listener.py, stop_listener.py, delete_listener.py
  • Server-group lifecycle: create_server_group.py, add_servers.py, remove_servers.py, delete_server_group.py
  • Rule lifecycle: create_rule.py, update_rule.py, delete_rule.py
