TS Server Drain Mode
Posted: Wed Oct 02, 2013 3:20 pm
Hi,
in a Load Balacing cenario where you need to have services avaiable 24/7, an option to allow for an aplication server to be drained would be great. This can be extremely helpfull for maintenance.
The only way i know of accomplishing something like this is in TSPLUS, is removing the server from load balancing configuration, and then add it again.
Microsoft Remote Desktop already has this feature (this can also be configured using GUI):
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server\TSServerDrainMode
0 = Allow all connections
1 = Allow reconnections, but prevent new logon until reboot
2 = Allow reconnections, but prevent new logon
This feature is must have for companys that operate 24/7, and would be a great addition to a great software.
Thanks.
