<p>Is it possible to update an external loadbalancer service in kubernetes with a new spec from an yaml file. </p>

<p>I can do rolling updates of the deployments but how can I update services, primarily not changing the external IP address. </p>

<p>Thanks, Rajesh</p>

<p>If you do not want to edit on the living or already deployed  manifest file. you can edit the service manifest file on your computer and use <strong>apply</strong> action instead of create.
For instance, </p>

<pre><code>kubectl apply -f service-manifest.yaml
</code></pre>

<p><strong>It will work without changing already existing external IPs</strong>     </p>
