Set-NlbClusterNode

Set-NlbClusterNode

Edits the Network Load Balancing (NLB) cluster node settings.

Syntax

Parameter Set: NonPipeline
Set-NlbClusterNode [[-HostName] <String> ] -InterfaceName <String> [-Force] [-HostPriority <Nullable> ] [-InitialHostState <Nullable> ] [-Reload] [-RetainSuspended <Nullable> ] [ <CommonParameters>]

Parameter Set: Pipeline
Set-NlbClusterNode -InputObject <Node> [-Force] [-HostPriority <Nullable> ] [-InitialHostState <Nullable> ] [-Reload] [-RetainSuspended <Nullable> ] [ <CommonParameters>]

Detailed Description

The Set-NlbClusterNode cmdlet edits the Network Load Balancing (NLB) cluster node settings. The changes you can make include reconfiguring the host priority, the initial host state, and whether to persist suspended states across reboots.

This operation changes the configuration on all cluster nodes. As a result, the NLB cluster will have to restart the convergence process on all nodes to guarantee that configuration changes have been applied on all nodes and that a consistent state is reached. Any additional operations on the NLB cluster should not be initiated until all cluster nodes have completed the convergence process and are back to the converged state.

Parameters

-Force

Runs the cmdlet without prompting for confirmation. By default the cmdlet will ask for confirmation from the user before proceeding.

<CommonParameters>

This cmdlet supports the common parameters: -Verbose, -Debug, -ErrorAction, -ErrorVariable, -OutBuffer, and -OutVariable. For more information, see    about_CommonParameters (https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkID=113216).

Inputs

The input type is the type of the objects that you can pipe to the cmdlet.

  • Microsoft.NetworkLoadBalancingClusters.PowerShell.Node

Outputs

The output type is the type of the objects that the cmdlet emits.

  • Microsoft.NetworkLoadBalancingClusters.PowerShell.Node

Examples

EXAMPLE 1

This example instructs the NLB driver on the node named node1 to reload all of its settings. This is required if an administrator wants to force configuration changes through the driver. This cmdlet must be run on node1 locally.

PS C:\> Get-NlbClusterNode –NodeName node1 | Set-NlbClusterNode -Reload

EXAMPLE 2

This example sets the initial host state of the node named node1 to Suspended.

PS C:\> Get-NlbClusterNode –NodeName node1 | Set-NlbClusterNode -InitialHostState Suspended

EXAMPLE 3

This example changes the persist suspend on reboot setting on node named node1 to TRUE.

PS C:\> Get-NlbClusterNode -NodeName node1| Set-NlbClusterNode -RetainSuspended $TRUE | Format-List –Property *

EXAMPLE 4

This example changes the host priority (ID) on the node named node1 to 5.

PS C:\> Get-NlbClusterNode –NodeName node1 | Set-NlbClusterNode -HostPriority 5 | Format-List –Property *
