Yes, it is in the System State. But as you mentioned, it is also in memory...
and config changes made to the web server stay in memory and don't get written
to disk until you shut down the web server or tell it to write it to disk
(back it up as you mentioned with scripts or MMC). A restore of the System
State would be missing these changes.
No, OTM would not get it.

[Veritas-bu] IIS metabase

Is anyone backing up the IIS metabase before running NetBackup? I've read that
NTBackup includes the
metabase in its System State backup, but Veritas Technotes indicates that
because the metabase is in
memory, NetBackup can't back it up (understandably). Would it be included if
OTM is enabled?
I've tried running the metaback.vbs script included with IIS 5.0, but I always
get 'Error backing up Metabase
to 'C:\winnt\inetsrv\metaback\metabase.MD0' (next version). Error number: 5'.
I can find no information on
what this error is. It works fine if I do a backup through MMC.
(Windows 2000 Advanced Server, SP2, server also running SharePoint Portal
server)
Thanks,
Lee Anne
