Anyone had any luck with configuring this? Must admit, I am an NLB-noob, so
I've probably done something wrong....

Trying to configure an NLB cluster for an IIS-based app on Server 2012 R2.

Got two servers with the IIS app, Server1 and Server2

Configured an NLB cluster to load balance these called Cluster1

When both servers are up, everything seems to work fine. However, when I
stop IIS on Server1, connecting to the Cluster1 DNS name just returns "page
cannot be found". It's as if it always tries to connect to the original one
it connected to.

I can connect to http://Server1/app and http://Server2/app just fine.

I can connect to http://Cluster1/app fine as long as both servers are up.

If I shut down Server1, I can no longer connect to http://Cluster1/app

What obvious thing should I be checking? There's not an awful lot of
options to try with NLB - switching to Multicast seems to stop it working
altogether :-(

I've also messed with various bits of IIS but given that both servers
accept connections I don't really think it's related to that.

Give me a NetScaler any day over NLB!

TIA,



JRR
