DontLog

The DontLog property specifies whether client requests are written to the IIS log files. By default, logging is enabled by the LogType property on a service or server node. Set the DontLog property to on child directories or files to exempt them from logging.

ASP and ODBC errors do not get logged to the IIS log files. For more information, see IIS Error Codes.
