Guidelines

The damp command specifies the dampening period for a member server. The dampening period is the duration that a server is removed from the load balancer group because it cannot connect during a normal HTTP or TCP transaction. Such a server has a health state of softdown. When this interval expires, the server is restored to the load balancer group and placed in the up state.

This command does not affect servers that are in the down state.

Example

Set the dampening period of 5 minutes.
# damp 600
