Configuring automatic server restart

CADMATIC eShare server is set to restart daily at 02:45 A.M. This releases any system resources that the server might have reserved but no longer needs. The restart takes roughly a minute and during this time the server is unavailable. Use the Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager application to change the restart settings, if needed.

Do the following:

  1. Log in to the eShare server computer with administrative privileges, and open the Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager application.
  2. In the Connections pane, click Application Pools.
  3. In the Application Pools main view, right-click eShareApplicationPool (the name might be different, if changed when installing eShare), and select either Recycling or Advanced Settings to specify the Recycling options.
    • You can set the server to restart at a specific time, after a specified time interval, or after a given amount of requests. (All can be selected at the same time.)
    • You can specify the maximum limits of virtual and private memory.
    • You can specify which events to log when recycling occurs.
  4. Restart the application pool for the changes to take effect.
