You can use the CIFS to load balance file.by default the CSM will not close open connections when a server fails a probe.
You can however change that behaviour, by configuring the "failaction purge" option: in that case, the CSM will send a RST (there is no way to send a FIN) to the clients, for all open connections to that PROBE_FAILED server.
