If a ALBhealthmonitor with the alb-healthmonitor-id is not already present,

ALBhealthmonitor. This is a full replace.
This API is only available when using VMware NSX-T.

Name	Description	Type	Notes
_create_time	Timestamp of resource creation	EpochMsTimestamp	Readonly Sortable
_create_user	ID of the user who created this resource	string	Readonly
_last_modified_time	Timestamp of last modification	EpochMsTimestamp	Readonly Sortable
_last_modified_user	ID of the user who last modified this resource	string	Readonly
_links	References related to this resource The server will populate this field when returing the resource. Ignored on PUT and POST.	array of ResourceLink	Readonly
_protection	Indicates protection status of this resource Protection status is one of the following: PROTECTED - the client who retrieved the entity is not allowed to modify it. NOT_PROTECTED - the client who retrieved the entity is allowed to modify it REQUIRE_OVERRIDE - the client who retrieved the entity is a super user and can modify it, but only when providing the request header X-Allow-Overwrite=true. UNKNOWN - the _protection field could not be determined for this entity.	string	Readonly
_revision	Generation of this resource config The _revision property describes the current revision of the resource. To prevent clients from overwriting each other's changes, PUT operations must include the current _revision of the resource, which clients should obtain by issuing a GET operation. If the _revision provided in a PUT request is missing or stale, the operation will be rejected.	int
_schema	Schema for this resource	string	Readonly
_self	Link to this resource	SelfResourceLink	Readonly
_system_owned	Indicates system owned resource	boolean	Readonly
allow_duplicate_monitors	Allow duplicate monitors By default, multiple instances of the same healthmonitor to the same server are suppressed intelligently. In rare cases, the monitor may have specific constructs that go beyond the server keys (ip, port, etc.) during which such suppression is not desired. Use this knob to allow duplicates. Allowed in Basic(Allowed values- true) edition, Essentials(Allowed values- true) edition, Enterprise edition.	boolean
authentication	Authentication Authentication information for username/password. Allowed in Basic edition, Essentials edition, Enterprise edition.	ALBHealthMonitorAuthInfo
children	subtree for this type within policy tree subtree for this type within policy tree containing nested elements.	array of ChildPolicyConfigResource Children are not allowed for this type
description	Description of this resource	string	Maximum length: 1024 Sortable
disable_quickstart	Disable quickstart During addition of a server or healthmonitors or during bootup, Avi performs sequential health checks rather than waiting for send-interval to kick in, to mark the server up as soon as possible. This knob may be used to turn this feature off. Allowed in Basic(Allowed values- false) edition, Essentials(Allowed values- false) edition, Enterprise edition.	boolean
display_name	Identifier to use when displaying entity in logs or GUI Defaults to ID if not set	string	Maximum length: 255 Sortable
dns_monitor	Dns monitor Placeholder for description of property dns_monitor of obj type HealthMonitor field type str type ref.	ALBHealthMonitorDNS
external_monitor	External monitor Placeholder for description of property external_monitor of obj type HealthMonitor field type str type ref.	ALBHealthMonitorExternal
failed_checks	Failed checks Number of continuous failed health checks before the server is marked down. Allowed values are 1-50. Default value when not specified in API or module is interpreted by ALB Controller as 2.	integer	Minimum: 1 Maximum: 50 Default: "2"
http_monitor	Http monitor Placeholder for description of property http_monitor of obj type HealthMonitor field type str type ref.	ALBHealthMonitorHttp
https_monitor	Https monitor Placeholder for description of property https_monitor of obj type HealthMonitor field type str type ref.	ALBHealthMonitorHttp
id	Unique identifier of this resource	string	Sortable
imap_monitor	Imap monitor Health monitor for IMAP.	ALBHealthMonitorImap
imaps_monitor	Imaps monitor Health monitor for IMAPS.	ALBHealthMonitorImap
is_federated	Is federated This field describes the object's replication scope. If the field is set to false, then the object is visible within the controller-cluster and its associated service-engines. If the field is set to true, then the object is replicated across the federation. Allowed in Basic(Allowed values- false) edition, Essentials(Allowed values- false) edition, Enterprise edition. Default value when not specified in API or module is interpreted by ALB Controller as false.	boolean	Default: "False"
marked_for_delete	Indicates whether the intent object is marked for deletion Intent objects are not directly deleted from the system when a delete is invoked on them. They are marked for deletion and only when all the realized entities for that intent object gets deleted, the intent object is deleted. Objects that are marked for deletion are not returned in GET call. One can use the search API to get these objects.	boolean	Readonly Default: "False"
markers	Markers List of labels to be used for granular RBAC. Allowed in Basic edition, Essentials edition, Enterprise edition.	array of ALBRoleFilterMatchLabel
monitor_port	Monitor port Use this port instead of the port defined for the server in the Pool. If the monitor succeeds to this port, the load balanced traffic will still be sent to the port of the server defined within the Pool. Allowed values are 1-65535. Special values are 0 - 'Use server port'.	integer	Minimum: 0 Maximum: 65535
overridden	Indicates whether this object is the overridden intent object Global intent objects cannot be modified by the user. However, certain global intent objects can be overridden locally by use of this property. In such cases, the overridden local values take precedence over the globally defined values for the properties.	boolean	Readonly Default: "False"
parent_path	Path of its parent Path of its parent	string	Readonly
path	Absolute path of this object Absolute path of this object	string	Readonly
pop3_monitor	Pop3 monitor Health monitor for POP3.	ALBHealthMonitorPop3
pop3s_monitor	Pop3s monitor Health monitor for POP3S.	ALBHealthMonitorPop3
radius_monitor	Radius monitor Health monitor for Radius. Allowed in Basic edition, Essentials edition, Enterprise edition.	ALBHealthMonitorRadius
realization_id	A unique identifier assigned by the system for realizing intent This is a UUID generated by the system for realizing the entity object. In most cases this should be same as 'unique_id' of the entity. However, in some cases this can be different because of entities have migrated thier unique identifier to NSX Policy intent objects later in the timeline and did not use unique_id for realization. Realization id is helpful for users to debug data path to correlate the configuration with corresponding intent.	string	Readonly
receive_timeout	Receive timeout A valid response from the server is expected within the receive timeout window. This timeout must be less than the send interval. If server status is regularly flapping up and down, consider increasing this value. Allowed values are 1-2400. Unit is SEC. Default value when not specified in API or module is interpreted by ALB Controller as 4.	integer	Minimum: 1 Maximum: 2400 Default: "4"
relative_path	Relative path of this object Path relative from its parent	string	Readonly
resource_type	Must be set to the value ALBHealthMonitor	string
send_interval	Send interval Frequency, in seconds, that monitors are sent to a server. Allowed values are 1-3600. Unit is SEC. Default value when not specified in API or module is interpreted by ALB Controller as 10.	integer	Minimum: 1 Maximum: 3600 Default: "10"
sip_monitor	Sip monitor Health monitor for SIP. Allowed in Basic edition, Essentials edition, Enterprise edition.	ALBHealthMonitorSIP
smtp_monitor	Smtp monitor Health monitor for SMTP.	ALBHealthMonitorSmtp
smtps_monitor	Smtps monitor Health monitor for SMTPS.	ALBHealthMonitorSmtp

Enum options - HEALTH_MONITOR_PING, HEALTH_MONITOR_TCP, HEALTH_MONITOR_HTTP, HEALTH_MONITOR_HTTPS, HEALTH_MONITOR_EXTERNAL, HEALTH_MONITOR_UDP, HEALTH_MONITOR_DNS, HEALTH_MONITOR_GSLB, HEALTH_MONITOR_SIP, HEALTH_MONITOR_RADIUS, HEALTH_MONITOR_SMTP, HEALTH_MONITOR_SMTPS, HEALTH_MONITOR_POP3, HEALTH_MONITOR_POP3S, HEALTH_MONITOR_IMAP, HEALTH_MONITOR_IMAPS. Allowed in Basic(Allowed values- HEALTH_MONITOR_PING,HEALTH_MONITOR_TCP,HEALTH_MONITOR_UDP,HEALTH_MONITOR_HTTP,HEALTH_MONITOR_HTTPS) edition, Essentials(Allowed values- HEALTH_MONITOR_PING,HEALTH_MONITOR_TCP,HEALTH_MONITOR_UDP) edition, Enterprise edition.	ALBHealthMonitorType	Required
udp_monitor	Udp monitor Placeholder for description of property udp_monitor of obj type HealthMonitor field type str type ref.	ALBHealthMonitorUdp
