Joe,

 

In your reply, should set_state() and set_availability() swap places?

 

 

When you say GUI docs, I take it you mean the documentation that pops up when we click on the “help” icon on the configuration utility GUI. Right?

 

 

Anyway, I looked at that documentation and I have a follow-up question:

 

When I call set_availability() with “Down” to set the state to “forced down”, are current TCP connections severed too? I thought only new connections would not be sent to the node. Am I wrong?

 

 

Thanks,

 

Karthic.
