Using Weighted Resource Record Sets with the 2010-10-01 Route 53 API

Weighted resource record sets were added starting with the 2011-05-05 version of the Route 53 API. If a zone contains any weighted resource record sets, we recommend that you use the 2011-05-05 or a later version of the API. Note the following about using weighted resource record sets with the 2010-10-01 API.

  • The 2010-10-01 version of the ChangeResourceRecordSets action cannot create or delete resource record sets that include SetIdentifier and Weight elements.

  • The 2010-10-01 version of the ListResourceRecordSets action can list resource record sets that include the SetIdentifier and Weight elements, but those elements are not included in the output. Instead, the Value element contains a message that says the resource record set includes an unsupported attribute.

  • The 2010-10-01 version of the ListResourceRecordSets action can paginate resource record sets that include SetIdentifier and Weight elements, but the combination of Name and Type is no longer guaranteed to correspond with a single resource record set. To ensure that the 2010-10-01 ListResourceRecordSets paginator makes progress and doesn't repeat a partial list of the resource record sets for a given Name and Type, specify a page size that is long enough to accommodate the largest number of resource record sets that are associated with any Name and Type combination in the zone.
