Note
This property reflects the state of the IIS server and should be treated as read-only. When configuring the metabase with Admin Base Object (ABO), use the MD_SERVER_COMMAND property to send start, stop, and pause commands to the server. When using ADSI or WMI, use the methods of the IIsFtpServer and IIsWebServer objects. You can also use the methods of the IIisServiceControl interface to control the server in a compiled IIS application.
