Migrating sites from IIS7 to IIS8.5

Hello. I was given the next task - to migrate the sites that are hosted on Windows 2008 to Windows 2012R2. Difficulties turned out to be that every site revolves on a separate application pool, from an individual user whose password is not known. Sites are pretty much and almost all have different settings (isapi filters, etc.). If you transfer using WebDeploy, then at least users will not be saved.

Below I will tell you how to migrate sites with IIS7 to IIS8.5 as transparently as possible for clients.

How to enable test mode on windows 2012

To install unsigned drivers on Windows Server 2012, you have to disable the Digital Signature Driver Verification.

In previous versions (before 2008 R2 or something like that), you could simply disable the check through group policies in gpedit.msc (User Configuration-> Administrative Templates-> System-> Driver Installation, Code Signing for Device Drivers).

Ubuntu - find out the free space

How much free space is left? Who took it? These two issues have to be faced constantly, especially file server administrators. If on the Windows platform, in a graphical environment, it's not difficult to find out, then the console of server versions of Linux can confuse many. However, do not be afraid, it's quite easy to get interesting information in the Linux environment.

As practice showed, this issue is relevant not only for novice administrators. Indeed, it is not enough just to find out the size of a file or folder, but you need to quickly and efficiently find out exactly who has taken up disk space and what. But first things first.
