Deciphering IISSYNC Status Codes

ID: Q224801


The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Internet Information Server version 4.0


SUMMARY

The IISSYNC utility is used to synchronize Internet Information Server (IIS) metabase and Transaction Server packages on one Node with IIS on a Microsoft Cluster Server on the other Node.

The IISSYNC utility returns a status code upon completion. This status code is always a numeric message whether the synchronization was successful or whether an error occurred.

This article contains a list of status codes that are most often encountered and what the possible or probable cause of the status code is.
