Add Application Pools to WebServer/Manage

Introduction:

Users (with permission) can re-start the website(s) via the Admin - without ay need to connect via RDP or anything.

This is done by utilization of the Gnuhost.IIS.Manager application, which should be installed on all web-servers.

The application should be configured in IIS as https://iis.domain.com, https://iis2.domain.com, etc.

In order to configure WHICH applications can be recycled from the Admin, we add those settings in the web.config (of the Admin).

1. Find the custom configuration section <crmConfig>
2. Find the Admin Host (there could be several Admin Hosts configured on the same server) for the domain.
3. Find the section <ApplicationPools>
4. Add application pool(s) as necessary:

• a) key: This is the name that users will see in the Admin (in the
• drop-down-list).
• b) name: This is the name of the Application Pool in IIS.
• c) managerApiUrl: This is the URL to the Gnuhost.IIS.Manager
• application configured on the same server as the website that you want
• to allow recycle-functionality to.
