Configuring Virtual Server Thread Settings

Topic Last Modified: 2009-08-05

For maximum performance and scalability, it is recommended that you modify the Internet Information Service (IIS) thread limits after creating a Communicator Web Access (2007 R2 release) virtual server. This is especially important if your Communicator Web Access server will need to handle more than just a few hundred simultaneous connections.

To configure virtual server thread settings

  1. Log on to the computer that is running Communicator Web Access as a member of the local Administrators group and the RTCUniversalServerAdmins group.

  2. Click Start and then click Run.

  3. In the Run dialog box, type wbemtest and then press ENTER.

  4. In the Windows Management Instrumentation Tester, click Connect.

  6. In the Windows Management Instrumentation Tester, click Open Class.

  7. In the Get Class Name dialog box, type MSFT_CWASiteSetting in the Enter Target Class Name box, and then press ENTER.

  8. In the Object Editor for MSFT_CWASiteSetting dialog box, select Hide System Properties and then click Instances.

  9. All of the virtual servers installed on the computer will be displayed in the Query Result dialog box. To view the properties for a particular virtual server, double-click the server name.

  10. In the Object Editor dialog box, select MaxThreadLimit and then click Edit Property.

  11. In the Property Editor dialog box type 12 in the Value box and then click Save Property.

  12. In the Object Editor dialog box, select MinThreadLimit and then click Edit Property.
