IIS services consist of IIS Admin Service and World Wide Web Publishing Service in the Services Window in Window System
IIS services are being used in Many EPM products in the 11.1 and 11.2 Versions. The products are Performance Management Architect Service (Dimension Server) , Hyperion Financial Management, Hyperion FDM, and Data Relationship Management
Many times you might need to restart the IIS services for troubleshooting. There are two ways to do it. We can go to the Services window and then do the restart from it or we can do it using the command line option
How to start the IIS service using a command prompt
iisreset /start
How to stop the IIS service using a command prompt
iisreset /stop
How to restart the IIS using Command Prompt
iisreset /restart
or
iisreset
or
iisreset /noforce
In the last option, it will try gracefully stop the services for 1 min and if to does not go down, it will forcefully do it. In others, it will kill all the active session and then restart
