 = Adopting the {loadbalancer_service}
 
-During the adoption process the {loadbalancer_first_ref} service
-must stay disabled in the new control plane.
+To adopt the {loadbalancer_first_ref}, you patch an existing `OpenStackControlPlane` custom resource (CR) where the {loadbalancer_service} is disabled. The patch starts the service with the configuration parameters that are provided by the {rhos_prev_long} ({OpenStackShort}) environment. Existing load balancers fail over after the adoption process. This is necessary to upgrade their image and set up a network connection with the new control plane.
