A colleage of mine added a monitoring program that when one of my terminal servers out of a farm of 8 using Windows NLB reaches 40 connections the monitor will drainstop the server until the active sesion level falls below 40 again. this causes the entire farm to converge each time a server is drained. My concern with this is (With supporting evidence,please) Does this affect the performance of the servers or the stabilty of them. The server are starting and stopping convergence about every half hour on a busy day.
