WAPI VERSION 2.1 OR HIGHER REQUIRED
Based on a customer request, I created this WAPI request which will likely be useful in the future.
This call uses the WAPI "Request" object to go through the full process of creating two DTC servers, creating a DTC Pool, one for each server, then a topology rule, one for each Pool, then finally an LBDN with all the elements previously creted:
EDIT: The rules for the topology ruleset are not in variables, but it's very likely possible to do so. I'll add a version with variable rules if I see enough interest in this, for now it should be enough to remember where they add and edit them appropriately.
