Run nlb.exe problem


Recommended Posts

Hey all...

I am missing something here....I am trying to run a simple Run command for MS Network Load Balancing

If the script cannot connect to the IP address and the port (in this case 80) then it should run a command to stop the NLB on that cluster node. The standard windows command prompt is c:\windows\system32\nlb.exe stop <cluster>:<node>....if I run this command on the server it works fine, if I replace the command with a message box it reponds that it cannot connact that ip/port so it should run the command when I replace the message box with the Run command....but nothing happens (ie the node is active active running the script. Here is the syntax on my command line:

Run(@ComSpec & " /c" & 'c:\windows\system32\nlb.exe stop win2k8nlb:win2k8nlb2',"",@SW_HIDE)

Here is the entire code:

$g_IP = "IP HERE"

; Start The TCP Services
;==============================================
TCPStartUp()

; Connect to a Listening "SOCKET"
;==============================================
$socket = TCPConnect($g_IP, 80)

If $socket = 1 Then
    MsgBox(1,"Invalid IP","Invalid IP")
    TCPCloseSocket($socket)
    TCPShutdown()
    Exit
ElseIf $socket = 2 Then
    MsgBox(1,"Invalid Port","Invalid Port")
    TCPCloseSocket($socket)
    TCPShutdown()
    Exit
ElseIf $socket = -1 Then
    ;MsgBox(1,"Invalid connection","Invalid connection")
    Run(@ComSpec & " /c" & 'c:\windows\system32\nlb.exe stop win2k8nlb:win2k8nlb2',"",@SW_HIDE)
    TCPCloseSocket($socket)
    TCPShutdown()

EndIf
Exit

For sure you are missing a space after the /c

@ComSpec & " /c "

Also you should shorten the path whenever possible

@SystemDir & "\nlb.exe stop win2k8nlb:win2k8nlb2"

Since @SystemDir is in the Windows environment path it can even be shortened to

"nlb.exe stop win2k8nlb:win2k8nlb2"

So now you have

Run(@Comspec & " /c " & @SystemDir & "\nlb.exe stop win2k8nlb:win2k8nlb2", "", @SW_HIDE)
