Automated way of disabling/enabling servers in my sharepoint publishing farm?
-
Saturday, January 09, 2010 11:35 AMWe have 2 machines in the sharepoint publishing rule. We want to always allow only one to be active, and the other deactive. Is there an automated way (through code) or some tool, that can do this?
For example:
sharepoint-wfe1
sharepoint-wfe2
At any given time it could be only one, and if I could call a command line or code program that can switch it, or do stuff.
Has anyone tried this?

Hi,
Thank you for the post.
As far as I know, when you publish a server farm, there will be a option “Drain” which can achieve your goal, but this is not automated way. For more information, please refer to this article: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc995240.aspx
