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).
- Find the custom configuration section <crmConfig>
- Find the Admin Host (there could be several Admin Hosts configured on the same server) for the domain.
- Find the section <ApplicationPools>
- 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.
