nlb drain doesn't work?  If you want a drain and stop just do 

 

nlb drain

nlb stop

 

But don't you want it started again?  I'll drop out of this one since
Jerry is in on it...

        I executed:

         

        "wlbs drainstop"

         

        and

         

        "nlb drainstop"

         

        Both did the same thing I mentioned before.

        What I'm trying to accomplish is the same you do from the ISA
console going to monitoring/services right click over the NLB service
and select "drain and stop", but from the command prompt or using a
script.

        What is the command you are attempting to execute?

        Yes I tried both options, but look like the NLB drain, stopped
and started automatically.

        ISA is showing that on the alerts tab, but I didn't find a way
to emulate the drain you can do from the ISA console.

        NLB has both an 'nlb drainstop' and 'nlb drain' command.  Full
syntax is listed in online Help.

        Doesn't nlb.exe have a drain parameter?  NLB isn't my area of
expertise, but I thought you could "drain" from the command line
somehow... I bet Jim knows ;)

                But the thing is, I'm looking to specifically do a drain
of the service, no a stop. Is there any parameter on the net stop to do
a drain, or is there any other command to run a drain?

                 

                Regards

                You'd have to do something like "net stop" in a script
that uses "RunAs" to escalate privileges.  You could obfuscate the
password in an encoded vscript, but they could get to it if they wanted
to badly enough. 

                 

                But, you could tell them not to do that and then audit
for logon events for the account you created to do that-- at least you
could know if it was being abused.

                        Dears, I need to give some IT guys the ability
to drain the NLB service, but I assume the only person that can do that
in ISA2004 or ISA2006 is an administrator of the array or enterprise.

                        Since I don't want to make those guys
administrators of any array, I'm wondering if there is a way to drain
the service using a script. Does anybody know a way to do it?

                         

                        Thanks
