10. Administration New Administration UI New Command Line Utility appcmd.exe New Managed DLL – Microsoft.Web.Administration Can be Delegated Server can be managed Remotely Andrew Westgarth - http://www.andrewwestgarth.co.uk/Blog - mail@hawaythelads.co.uk

11. Delegated Administration Server Administration can be delegated via configuration – Allows Administrators to enable others to control aspects of configuration Remote Administration of IIS in Windows Server 2008 Andrew Westgarth - http://www.andrewwestgarth.co.uk/Blog - mail@hawaythelads.co.uk

12. Demo – IIS7 Administration Administration UI and AppCmd Review of Microsoft.Web.Administration Andrew Westgarth - http://www.andrewwestgarth.co.uk/Blog - mail@hawaythelads.co.uk

13. Componentization IIS7 Now Fully Modular Can have very small server footprint Customise to only install/enable features you want to have running Therefore only patch what you need/use Andrew Westgarth - http://www.andrewwestgarth.co.uk/Blog - mail@hawaythelads.co.uk

15. Configuration No more Metabase!!!! Compatability – old metabase pushed to new config – same property names Central File – ApplicationHost.config – Strongly Typed Schema – Use same methodology as ASP.Net.config files Distributed Configuration Andrew Westgarth - http://www.andrewwestgarth.co.uk/Blog - mail@hawaythelads.co.uk

16. Demo - Configuration Let’s take a look at the new configuration system. Andrew Westgarth - http://www.andrewwestgarth.co.uk/Blog - mail@hawaythelads.co.uk

17. Extensibility Model IIS6 – ISAPI Filter and Extensions IIS7 – Brand New Win32 Native Interface – All IIS Modules written using this interface – IIS Team uses this API just like you WILL! – Full ASP.Net 2.0 Support – IHttpModule available supported today! – ASP.Net 2.0 Handlers run same as today – IIS Manager (UI) – Extend using.Net 2.0 – Diagnostics – Add own events directly into pipeline (System.Diagnostics) Andrew Westgarth - http://www.andrewwestgarth.co.uk/Blog - mail@hawaythelads.co.uk

18. ASP.Net HttpHandlers and HttpModules HttpHandler – Similar to ISAPI extensions – Can be called via url – Act as target for incoming requests HttpModules – Plug into the ASP.Net request processing pipeline – Registered for certain events – As the event occurs the ASP.Net invokes the module so it can handle the request Andrew Westgarth - http://www.andrewwestgarth.co.uk/Blog - mail@hawaythelads.co.uk

19. Demo Extensibility Build Image Copyright Handler Build Module and Integrate with IIS7 Admin Andrew Westgarth - http://www.andrewwestgarth.co.uk/Blog - mail@hawaythelads.co.uk

20. Troubleshooting and Diagnostics Real Time State Information Available – Current Processes Running – Application Pools Process ID – Currently executing requests – AppDomains loaded Real-time starting and stopping of sites Failed Request Tracing Extensive Custom Errors Andrew Westgarth - http://www.andrewwestgarth.co.uk/Blog - mail@hawaythelads.co.uk

21. Failed Request Tracing Traces all requests through Pipeline Automatically Enabled on IIS7 Easily identify failing, stuck requests Identifies time take in each module, helping analyzing long running requests Andrew Westgarth - http://www.andrewwestgarth.co.uk/Blog - mail@hawaythelads.co.uk

22. Custom Errors Much more detailed – Language specific (Accept-Encoding) – Time – URL – Current Module – Response Status, Sub-Status – More Information – Detailed steps to fix problem where available Andrew Westgarth - http://www.andrewwestgarth.co.uk/Blog - mail@hawaythelads.co.uk

23. Demo Troubleshooting Custom Error Pages Failed Request Tracing Andrew Westgarth - http://www.andrewwestgarth.co.uk/Blog - mail@hawaythelads.co.uk

24. Unified Platform for Web Services and WCF Host WCF Services using Windows Activation Service (WAS) Supports Non-HTTP Protocols such as – Named Pipes – TCP – MSMQ Provides features for idle-time management, health monitoring, process recycling Andrew Westgarth - http://www.andrewwestgarth.co.uk/Blog - mail@hawaythelads.co.uk

25.
