POST databases/:database_name/hosts/:host_id/replace_with/:host_id_new
Creates a job to replace the host identified by hosts/:host_id with the host identified by replace_with/:host_id.
Creates a job to replace the host identified by hosts/:host_id with the host identified by replace_with/:host_id. Vertica performs these operations for the database identified by :database_name. The :database_name is the value of the name field that the GET databases command returns. The :host_id is the value of the host field as returned by GET databases/:database_name. You can find valid replacement hosts using GET hosts. The replacement host cannot already be part of the database. You must stop the vertica process on the host being replaced.
Returns a job ID that you can use to determine the status of the job. See GET jobs.
