System Registry Modifications
For the latest version of Commerce Server 2007 Help, see the Microsoft Web site.
When adding Microsoft Management Console (MMC) extension snap-ins, you must make certain system registry modifications. These include the normal Component Object Model (COM) entries in the HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT registry key, and the MMC-specific entries in the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\MMC\\NodeTypes and ...\\MMC\\SnapIns registry keys.
If the new extension snap-in will have child nodes exposed in the scope pane, it is also necessary to add the GUID corresponding to the new extension snap-in to the Extension/NameSpace key of the appropriate NodeType key in the system registry.
Depending on whether the new extension snap-in corresponds to a global resource or a site resource, it will be necessary to modify either the "Microsoft Commerce Server Group Resources" or the "Microsoft Commerce Server Resource" NodeType registry entry. For more information about the corresponding NodeType GUIDs, see the first two rows in the table in Commerce Server Manager NodeType GUIDs.
