Stop-NlbCluster

Stop-NlbCluster

Stops all nodes of an NLB cluster.

Syntax

Stop-NlbCluster [[-HostName] <string>] [[-InterfaceName] <string>] [-Drain] [-Timeout <System.Nullable`1[[System.UInt32>] [<CommonParameters>]


Stop-NlbCluster -InputObject <Cluster[]> [-Drain] [-Timeout <System.Nullable`1[[System.UInt32>] [<CommonParameters>]

Detailed Description

The Stop-NlbCluster cmdlet stops all nodes in an NLB cluster. The cmdlet will stop the NLB service on the host and all existing connections will be lost. To avoid interrupting active connections, use the -drain parameter which allows the host to continue servicing active connections, but disables all new traffic to that host.

Parameters

-Drain <SwitchParameter>

Drains existing traffic before stopping the cluster. If this parameter is omitted, existing traffic will be dropped.
