More than one node claims an IP address to be on the client affinity lists

Microsoft.Windows.NetworkLoadBalancing.6.2..Client.stickiness.conflict (Rule)

Knowledge Base article:

Summary

The NLB driver has detected an inconsistency in the extended affinity configuration between two cluster hosts

Resolutions

Confirm that the extended affinity configurations for all port rules are identical on all Network Load Balancing (NLB) hosts. 

When you are using NLB Manager, you must be a member of the Administrators group on the host that you are configuring, or you must have been delegated the appropriate authority. If you are configuring a cluster or host by running NLB Manager from a computer that is not part of the cluster, you do not have to be a member of the Administrators group on that computer.

Confirm all NLB hosts have identical extended affinity configurations

To confirm that all NLB hosts have identical extended affinity configurations:

Configure extended affinity on port rules
