Windows NT Load Balancing Service Cluster Fails to Converge (193599)


The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Windows NT Server 4.0
  • Microsoft Windows NT Load Balancing Service
This article was previously published under Q193599

SYMPTOMS

After you start the cluster hosts, the hosts start converging but never report that convergence has completed.

CAUSE

Either a different number of port rules or incompatible port rules on different cluster hosts were entered. This will inhibit convergence.

-or-

Two or more Windows NT Load Balancing Service (WLBS) hosts have the same priority number.

RESOLUTION

To work around this problem, run the WLBS Setup dialog box on each cluster host and verify that all hosts have identical port rules and that no two hosts have the same priority number.
