Iisapp.vbs: IIS application query script

Reports the process identifiers (PIDs) of currently running w3pwp.exe processes serving a particular application pool.

Syntax

iisapp [a/ AppPoolName | /p AppPoolID]

Parameters

/a AppPoolName
Specifies the name of a particular application pool. (Optional)

/p AppPoolID
Specifies an application pool by its ID number. (Optional)

Remarks

If no application pool name or ID are specified, iisapp lists all running applications.
The /u and /p command-line options are available only when you use /s. You must use /p with /u to provide the user's password.
Iisext.vbs performs the same operations that are available from IIS Manager. You can use either tool to administer IIS Web sites.
The computer issuing the command must be running Windows XP or a Windows Server 2003 operating system. The user must be a member of the Administrators group on any computer that the command affects.
The computer that the command affects must be a server running Windows Server 2003 with Internet Information Services (IIS) 6.0.
