Unpacking Options
By default, Site Packager unpacks each application into the IIS Default Web Site in a virtual directory that matches the application name. To improve the security of your site, you should create a new IIS Web site instead of using the Default Web Site for the Commerce Server sites you unpack. You can change the name of the virtual directory that contains each application. To change the IIS Web site or virtual directory while unpacking, you must use the Custom mode of Site Packager.
When you add application files to a Web server in a Web farm, you associate that Web server with the application in Commerce Server Manager. Site Packager displays the name of the IIS Web site where the application will be installed and the IIS application path for each Commerce Server application.
When you unpack a site and an application that already exists in the Administration database, Site Packager assumes you are adding a Web server to the application.
