The Web Message Viewer server component (Web MV) uses Microsoft's Internet Information Services component (IIS) to provide remote access to the Web MV client application (written as a Java Applet). With the Microsoft Windows Server 2008 operating system, a newer version of this IIS component (version 7.0) is now bundled as an available server role. This newer version of IIS includes several enhancements over the previous version (version 6.0), including newer interfaces to configure and manage IIS itself. These new management interfaces are not backward-compatible with the previous version of IIS, so Microsoft has included an optional role service for the Web Server (IIS) server role to allow an application to use the same interface to manage both IIS 6.0 and IIS 7.0.
To allow Web MV to work in both IIS 6.0 and IIS 7.0 environments, CA Automation Point uses the previous IIS management interfaces (available in IIS version 6.0). For the Web MV server component to integrate with IIS 7.0 on the Microsoft Windows Server 2008 operating system, you must install the optional Web Server role service that provides IIS 6.0 compatibility. This Web Server role service is named IIS 6 Management Compatibility. Because a default IIS 7.0 installation does not include this role service, you must explicitly select this service for installation.
