Why is my load balancer in maintenance_pending state?

Use the information in this topic to troubleshoot your load balancer if it is in a maintenance_pending state.

Your load balancer displays it is in a maintenance_pending state.

An NLB enters a maintenance_pending state during various maintenance activities, such as:

  • Recovery activities
  • Load balancer failover
  • Upgrades to address vulnerabilities and appllication of security patches

The maintenance_pending state will resolve once the associated maintenance activity completes.
