Files in This Management Pack

To monitor Internet Information Services (IIS) 8 on Windows Server 2008, you must first download the Internet Information Services 8 Management Pack from the Management Pack Catalog, located at https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=82105.

The download package includes the following files:

· Microsoft.Windows.InternetInformationServices.2012.mp

· Microsoft.Windows.InternetInformationServices.CommonLibrary.mp

These files enable you to monitor IIS 8 (on Windows Server 2012) and IIS 8.5 (on Windows Server 2012 R2).

The management pack guide that includes IIS 5.0, IIS 6.0 and IIS 7.0 is separate from this guide.

This guide documents information specific to the Internet Information Services 8 Management Pack for Windows Server 2012. All versions of the IIS Management Pack guide can be downloaded from https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=182649.

Optional Configuration

Information about performance collection rules that are disabled by default in this management pack is provided in Appendix A. Since the action of collecting data about performance has a performance cost itself, enable only the performance collection rules that you care about.

Security Considerations

You may need to customize your management pack. Certain accounts cannot be run in a low-privilege environment or must have minimum permissions. If you operate in a low-privilege computing environment, you may need to elevate the level of permissions assigned to the accounts you use for running management pack rules, monitors, discoveries, recoveries, and diagnostic tasks. These accounts must have minimum permissions in order for management pack components to run properly.

Low-Privilege Environments

The System Center 2012 Management Pack for Microsoft Windows Server 2012 Internet Information Services 8 requires local administrator privileges to discover, monitor, and execute tasks. For the management pack discoveries, monitors, tasks, and diagnostics that require administrative privileges, the management pack uses the Privileged Management Run As profile, configured by default to use the Local System account. The following tables identify the management pack elements that are configured to use the Privileged Management Run As profile. These management pack tasks cannot be run using a low-privilege account.
