Move Primary Replica

Moves the primary replica of a partition of a stateful service.

This command moves the primary replica of a partition of a stateful service, respecting all constraints. If NodeName parameter is specified, primary will be moved to the specified node (if constraints allow it). If NodeName parameter is not specified, primary replica will be moved to a random node in the cluster. If IgnoreConstraints parameter is specified and set to true, then primary will be moved regardless of the constraints.

partitionId string (uuid) Yes Path
api-version string Yes Query
NodeName string No Query
IgnoreConstraints boolean No Query
timeout integer (int64) No Query

partitionId

Type: string (uuid)
Required: Yes

The identity of the partition.


api-version

Type: string
Required: Yes
Default: 6.5

The version of the API. This parameter is required and its value must be '6.5'.

Service Fabric REST API version is based on the runtime version in which the API was introduced or was changed. Service Fabric runtime supports more than one version of the API. This version is the latest supported version of the API. If a lower API version is passed, the returned response may be different from the one documented in this specification.

Additionally the runtime accepts any version that is higher than the latest supported version up to the current version of the runtime. So if the latest API version is 6.0 and the runtime is 6.1, the runtime will accept version 6.1 for that API. However the behavior of the API will be as per the documented 6.0 version.


NodeName

Type: string
Required: No

The name of the node.


IgnoreConstraints

Type: boolean
Required: No
Default: false

Ignore constraints when moving a replica or instance. If this parameter is not specified, all constraints are honored.


timeout

Type: integer (int64)
Required: No
Default: 60
InclusiveMaximum: 4294967295
InclusiveMinimum: 1

The server timeout for performing the operation in seconds. This timeout specifies the time duration that the client is willing to wait for the requested operation to complete. The default value for this parameter is 60 seconds.
