rebalance_primaries fails with a 404 returncode

We're new to clusters, so probably we made a stupid mistake or did not yet read an important chapter in the manual.
Trying to use the REST API on the clustermaster to redistribute primary buckets on a new cluster with version 6.0.1 we get a 404 response (the only one NOT in the manual).
What could be possibly do (in addition to sending anything through a loadbalacing forwarder and wait for a few month) ?

HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found

</response>

adding another "/control/" to the request helped a lot
If in doubt, cut & paste the complete URL
