11/5/2008 10:55:17 PM      Unknown                    ConvergingPhase1

This example gets the history of convergence for the local node.

EXAMPLE 3

PS C:\>Get-NlbClusterDriverInfo -Filter TCP -ServerIP 2.53.4.222 -ServerPort 5001 -ClientIP 2.53.4.5 -ClientPort 5001
Result 
------ 
ACCEPT_UNCONDITIONAL_OWNERSHIP

This example declares whether traffic in the given pattern will be accepted on the local node or not.

EXAMPLE 4

PS C:\>Get-NlbClusterDriverInfo -ExtendedAffinityList
IPAddress           References          VirtualIPAddress    StartPort 
---------           ----------          ----------------    --------- 
2.53.4.5            0                   All                 0 
2.53.4.6            0                   All                 0 
2.53.4.7            1                   All                 0

This example will enumerate the client IP addresses that are on the extended affinity list on this cluster node. This applies to port rules that have extended affinity timeout enabled. The cmdlet also displays the number of active connections for each client.

EXAMPLE 5

PS C:\>Get-NlbClusterDriverInfo -ExtendedAffinityExceptionList
IPAddress           HostId              VirtualIPAddress    StartPort 
---------           ------              ----------------    --------- 
2.53.4.6            2                   All                 0

This example will enumerate the client IP addresses that are on the extended affinity exception list. This applies to port rules that have extended affinity timeout enabled. Traffic from clients on this list will be picked up by another cluster node that has the host ID listed.

EXAMPLE 6

PS C:\>Get-NlbClusterDriverInfo -OpenConnections
SourceIPAddress     SourcePort          DestinationIPAddres DestinationPorts
                       
---------------     ----------          ------------------- --------------- 
2.53.4.5            64945               2.53.4.222          5001 
2.53.4.15           64854               2.53.4.222          80

This example enumerates all open connections on this cluster node. This is useful to run when the draining operation takes a long time and the administrator wants to know which connections are on the node.
