How to Test Individual Front End Web Server
- by ChiliYago
My farm consists of two front end (FE) web servers that are managed by a load balancer. One FE went down so we configured the load balancer to only send traffic to the other FE. We rebuilt the failed FE and rejoined the farm which appears to have worked successfully (looking at IIS). I want to test the new FE before configuring the Load Balancer to use the new server.
The approach I took was to add the IP/URL to my host file that pointed to the new server but nothing comes up.
Any advice would be great. Thanks
