BUG: The LOADBALANCE /MEMBERONLY switch requires that the /DRAIN:TIME switch be defined as seconds
SYMPTOMS
If you use the Microsoft Application Center 2000 command line tool, Ac.exe, to set a member offline by using the
/memberonly switch, the member is set in the suspend status.
The documentation states that if you use both the
/memberonly switch and the
/drain:time switch, time must be defined as minutes. Therefore, although you expect the following command to drain the member for 10 minutes, the member drains for only 10 seconds:
AC.exe loadbalance /offline /memberonly /drain:10
RESOLUTION
If you use both the
/memberonly switch and the
/drain:time switch, define the time in seconds. Therefore, use the following command to define a drain of 10 minutes:
ac.exe loadbalance /offline/memberonly /drain:600
The value of 600 seconds equals 10 minutes.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed in the "Applies to" section of this article.
APPLIES TO
- Microsoft Application Center 2000 Service Pack 2
- Microsoft Application Center 2000 Standard Edition
