11.11 IISRestartServer

Use this Knowledge Script to stop and then restart an IIS server. This script raises an event if the attempt to stop or restart a service fails or succeeds. Any services that are stopped when the job runs can also be detected and started.

When you use this Action with a Knowledge Script that supports dynamic observation and you enable the Dynamically observe Web servers at each interval parameter, you can only run this Knowledge Script on one Web site at a time. If you disable dynamic observation, you can run the Knowledge Script on all Web sites.
