monitor the w3wp.exe process and perform iisreset

[cantina]

hi,

i'm trying to tweak to create a script to automatically restart the w3wp.exe process once it reaches 90% cpu utilization.

there is a script that would monitor an application pool (adsutil.vbs) and shutdown the process once it reaches a certain cpu level, but was wondering if this could be tweaked in any way:

adsutil.vbs set W3SVC/AppPools/ApplicationPoolName/CPUAction ActionValue

wmi query or wmi event notification (async, blocking method call etc) is how i would approach it.

here is what i have. this is working, but when i log out of the server, the wscript.exe process stops, thus the script stops. Is there any way to continously run this script independently of being logged in? Or will i have to find a way to run this as a service?

Dim FSO, LogFile, Age, WshShell
set WshShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
Set FSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set w3wplog = fspenTextFile("c:\logs\w3wpexe.log", 8, True)
strComputer = "."
Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:" _
& "{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2")
set objRefresher = CreateObject("WbemScripting.Swbemrefresher")
Set objProcessor = objRefresher.AddEnum _
(objWMIService, "Win32_PerfFormattedData_PerfOS_Processor").objectSet
intThresholdViolations = 0
objRefresher.Refresh
Do
For Each intProcessorUse in objProcessor
If intProcessorUse.PercentProcessorTime > 35 Then
intThresholdViolations = intThresholdViolations + 1
If intThresholdViolations = 3 Then
intThresholdViolations = 0
WshShell.run ("c:\windows\system32\iisreset.exe")
w3wplog.writeLine file & " W3Wp.exe Process restarted on" &" "& date & "," & " " & time
End If
Else
intThresholdViolations = 0
End If
Next
Wscript.Sleep 10000
objRefresher.Refresh
Loop
set WshShell = nothing

Have you tried to made it a startup script ?

Hope This Helps, PH.
