Failure detection API - PUT a detection rule

Updates the specified failure detection rule.

If a rule with the specified ID doesn't exist, a new one is created and appended to the end of the rule list. Rules are evaluated from top to bottom; the first matching rule applies. To enforce a particular order, use the reorder request.

The failure detection parameter set used by the rule must exist at the time of rule creation.

The request consumes an application/json payload.
