Test-SCLoadBalancer

Test-SCLoadBalancer

Tests a load balancer.

Syntax

Parameter Set: Default
Test-SCLoadBalancer [-LoadBalancerAddress] <String> -ConfigurationProvider <ConfigurationProvider> -Port <UInt16> -RunAsAccount <RunAsAccount> [-JobVariable <String> ] [-PROTipID <Guid]> ] [-RunAsynchronously] [-VMMServer <ServerConnection> ] [ <CommonParameters>]

Detailed Description

The Test-SCLoadBalancer cmdlet runs tests against a load balancer and returns the results to the user.

Parameters

-ConfigurationProvider<ConfigurationProvider>

Specifies a configuration provider object. A configuration provider is a plug-in to VMM that translates VMM PowerShell commands to API calls that are specific to a type of load balancer. If no configuration provider is specified, VMM uses the Manufacturer and Model information to choose an available configuration provider. If no configuration provider is found, the load balancer is not added.

Examples

Example 1: Test a specified load balancer

The first command gets the configuration provider object for the manufacturer LBManufacturer and model LB01, and then stores the object in the $ConfigProvider variable.

The second command gets the Run As account named LBRunAsAccount, and then stores the object in the $RunAsAccount variable.

The last command tests the load balancer with the address LB01.Contoso.com, providing the Run As account stored in $RunAsAccount as credentials to run the tests. The command then displays the results to the user.

PS C:\> $ConfigProvider = Get-SCConfigurationProvider | where { $_.Type -eq "LoadBalancer" -and $_.Manufacturer -eq "LBManufacturer" -and $_.Model -eq "LB01"}
PS C:\> $RunAsAccount = Get-SCRunAsAccount -Name "LBRunAsAcct"
PS C:\> Test-SCLoadBalancer -LoadBalancerAddress "LB01.Contoso.com" -Port 123 -ConfigurationProvider $ConfigProvider -RunAsAccount $RunAsAccount
