Draining issues with Ms IIS and F5 LTM/BigIP 9.4.6

Hi,     Maybe this question doesn't belong in this forum but since it involves the LTM and load balancing I'll post it anyway since there must be others out there with similar issues.  ...

No node setting will clear existing connections. If you want to clear existing connections, you could remove them from the connection table using 'b conn'. You can check the 'b conn help' page for details.

 

 

Disabled (Only persistent or active connections allowed) - existing TCP connections and clients who have/present a valid persistence record would be allowed

 

Forced Offline (Only active connections allowed) - only existing TCP connections will be allowed

 

 

It's possible the "existing" connections are not existing, and are from monitor traffic. However, why do you need to clear existing TCP connections? If you're taking the node down, the server would reset/drop the connections anyhow.
