CpuLimitsEnabled

This property specifies whether process throttling is enabled, Process throttling can be enabled for an individual virtual server, or for the Web service overall, to limit the amount of CPU time used.

Note

Because process accounting in IIS uses Windows Job Objects to monitor CPU times for an entire process, process accounting will log and throttle only applications that are isolated in a separate process from IIS.

Process throttling and accounting are independently controlled by several other metabase properties. In order to enable process accounting you must set CpuEnableLogging (which is a member of CpuLoggingMask) to TRUE, and set at least one other CpuLoggingMask property to TRUE. It is also necessary to set at least one member flag of the CpuLoggingOptions, set CpuLoggingInterval to a nonzero value, and set either CpuAppEnabled or CpuCgiEnabled, as appropriate, to TRUE.

To properly activate process throttling, CpuLimitsEnabled must be set to TRUE, and at least one of the following properties should be set to TRUE: CpuLimitLogEvent, CpuLimitPriority, CpuLimitProcStop, or CpuLimitPause.
