The Windows Server 2008 NLB Management Pack can provide early warnings that an operator can use to proactively monitor the state of the NLB servers in the computing environment.
Feature Summary
Monitor the NLB Node status.
Based on the status of individual cluster nodes, determine the overall state of the cluster.
Where an integration management pack exists, determine the health state of a cluster node by looking at the health state of the load balanced application, such as IIS.
Alert on errors and warnings that are reported by the NLB driver, such as an incorrectly configured NLB cluster.
Take the node out of the NLB cluster if the underlying load-balanced application becomes unhealthy, and add the node back to the cluster when the application becomes healthy again.

Message Queuing (also known as MSMQ) is a server application that enables applications to communicate across heterogeneous networks and systems that may be temporarily offline or otherwise inaccessible. Instead of an application communicating with a service on another computer, it sends its information to Message Queuing, which sends the information to a Message Queuing service on the target computer where it is made available to the other application. Message Queuing provides guaranteed delivery, efficient routing, security, and priority based messaging.
