Hi All,
I have a bunch of web services deployed over IIS7. These services respond to requests by making socket connections to some Win32 applications. During reliability testing we found network errors after a few days. The errors were because a simple ping (ICMP Echo Request) to the server running the Win32 apps failed.
These errors are reproducible only when requests are serviced by the web services. If I write a standalone app sending requests to the Win32 apps directly I do not see these errors. Which is a reason why i wanted to know if there are any IIS socket limits that I'm hitting? If there is what is a good performance counter I can use to monitor this in PerfMon? Or any parameter I can tweak to increase this limit?
