You need to ensure that all new connections to App1 are directed to Server2

Your network contains two Web servers named Server1 and Server2.
Both servers run Windows Server 2012 R2.
Server1 and Server2 are nodes in a Network Load Balancing (NLB) cluster.
The NLB cluster contains an application named App1 that is accessed by using the URL
http://app1.contoso.com.
You plan to perform maintenance on Server1.
You need to ensure that all new connections to App1 are directed to Server2.
The solution must not disconnect the existing connections to Server1.

    Confused by this one….

    Article quoted in answer pertains to Windows Server Clustering, not Network Load Balancing Clusters.

    What are looking for here is -drain / -drainstop the node which we want to perform maintenance on.(“The solution must not disconnect the existing connections to Server1”)

    A. Set-NLBCluster –> Cluster level, we want a node specific command
    B. NLB.exe suspend (“NLB drainstop” would be the NLB switch we want..)
    C. NLB.exe stop (“NLB drainstop” would be the NLB switch we want..)
    D. Suspend-NLBClusterNode…No drain switch available

    In the other version of this question Stop-NLBClusterNode is the answer (used with drain switch) e.g Stop-NLBClusterNode -drain “NodeName”

    I’m confused….Anyone got any ideas?

    I took the test last week and this question was on it. Best I can recall these answers are as stated. I don’t see a drain switch for suspend-nlbclusternode but I do see one for suspend-clusternode so I suspect the answer is correct. Not sure why there are two very similar cmdlets out there.

    May be technically Suspend-NlbClusterNode doesn’t disconnect open sessions, it just suspends them. So no sessions are interrupted, they will be disconnected after timeout?

    Passed with 841 just going through these 389 questions. Only had 1 question outside of the ones listed.

    It went something along the lines of, what would you run to fix protected system files?

    Repair-volume
    sfc
    fsutil

    I think the answer is fsutil.

    check the link below
    NLB.exe drainstop [{Cluster[:Host] | all {local | global}}]
    Disables all new traffic handling on the specified hosts. While draining, hosts continue to service opened connections and stop their cluster operations when there are no more active connections. Draining mode can be terminated by explicitly stopping cluster mode with the stop command or by restarting new traffic handling with the start command. The optional parameters allow the command to address a specific cluster, a specific cluster on a specific host, all clusters on the local computer, or all global computers that are part of the cluster.

    The Suspend-NlbClusterNode cmdlet suspends a specific node in an NLB cluster. You might need to suspend a node in a cluster to override any remote control commands that are issued or for maintenance work.

    It says for maintenance work

    I think it´s D

    Detailed Description

    The Stop-NlbClusterNode cmdlet stops a node in an NLB cluster. When you use the stop the nodes in the cluster, client connections that are already in progress are interrupted. To avoid interrupting active connections, consider using the -drain parameter, which allows the node to continue servicing active connections but disables all new traffic to that node.
