How to reset IIS 7 on multiple Windows Server 2008 server machines from remote computer using a vbscript.
You can use:
iisreset.exe [computername]
Otherwise, it depends if you are looking to recycle just worker processes, or what? You could use SCM to Start and Stop w3SVC, or FTP. Or use AHADMIN to recycle individual Application Pools.

We are developed asp.net (.net 4 framework) web application and deployed in IIS 7 on Windows Server 2008.But when we host the web application on our IIS 5.1 server on my local machine ie,windowsxp machine it seems to be work faster than one deployed in the Windows Sever 2008 machine.
most probably the most number of user access the web application at the same is approximately 50 only... Do i need to change any setting in application pool on IIS7.
When deploying i have never changed any settings in IIS 7 on Windows Server 2008.I have deployed using Visual Studio 2010 support.
I don't know about the reason why it is acting like this?
So, Could you please tell me what are all the essential things do i need to change in IIS 7 and also Windows Server 2008 to speedup my web application...
Increase the worker process number in application pool such that it matches the processor cores (tetra core / penta core) in your windows-server machine so that it could make use of server effectively. But keep in mind, you have to choose SessionState other than In-Proc in your application if you increase your worker process number.
Occasionally when I reboot one of the servers at a client site the Web Apps running in IIS do not automatically start backup when the server is done rebooting. The IIS service starts up just fine, its set to Auto Start and there are no errors in the event log. Just none of the Web Apps are running, I have to click each one and click start. This only happens occasionally, as they usually start but its completely baffling.
Any thoughts? Its a mix of Classic ASP and ASP.NET applications. There are a total of 4 application pools running between around 8 web applications.
I have seen this happen when apps rely on a resource that is not yet available to the server, such as a network share.
Some people combat this problem by writing a Windows Service who's job is to check for such conditions and start the application.
We have a huge amount of webApplications running on IIS6. Because we want to run an MS MVC2 or MVC3 Webapp we have to use IIS7. Migrating these huge amount of IIS6 webapps is way to time intensive for us.
is it possible to run IIS6 and IIS7 on one machine?
Thanks!
No - it isn't possible to run IIS6 and IIS7 on the same machine.
The version of IIS for a machine is dictated by the operating system and cannot be installed standalone.
For instance, Windows XP shipped with IIS5.1, Windows 2003 shipped with IIS 6.0, Windows 2008 shipped with IIS7.0 and Windows 2008 R2 shipped with IIS7.5.
You can use IIS 7 / 7.5 but just run the application pools in the "classic" pipeline mode, which is the same as running your application in IIS6.
That way you can handle legacy applications and still be free to leverage the advantages of IIS7. Here's an article on the pipeline differences.

If you want them all to answer on port 80 you will have to setup some type of proxy to route calls to the correct IIS. Say you let one of them (perhaps IIS) run on port 80, then you need to setup IIS7 to run on another port and intercept calls to the IIS7-app and rewrite them to use another port.
Have you tried running your existing applications in IIS7? They might work?
no it is not possible . why because, just consider an mobile app and if update came means it will replace the older one like same it will get work.
if you need to check both in the sense , just install other version in virtual machine and we can easily see the difference between both
I would like to run Windows Server AppFabric Caching locally on a Windows 7 machine.
Is it possible to configure an ASP.Net app to use AppFabric Caching for session state with IIS Express?
Yes it is, you just need to make sure you have the App Fabric Caching server set up correctly on your local machine.
I'm having trouble with an app that runs on IIS 6, but not IIS 7.5 (as outlined in this question: IIS 7.5 Can't open Handler Mappings?)
I think it might solve the problem if I could run IIS 6 on my machine as well as 7.5. Can this be done? Will it cause any problems if I do this?
This is impossible. IIS 6 is an integrated part of Windows Server 2003 and IIS 7.5 is an integrated part of Windows Server 2008 R2. You can not 'install' any one of these, they are simply part of the package (you can only activate/deactivate them via the 'Turn Windows features on or off' dialogue).
However, what you can do is configure the 'Managed Pipeline Mode' of the application pool that is hosting your application. If you set this to 'Classic', it will revert to the IIS 6 pipeline mode.
I think that you can not because both of them need to open and listen to port 80 and 443. So there is conflict for sure.
