Export Tasks IIS Settings Suggestions
Export tasks such as "Export to ZIP" or "Export to PST" can be very resource consuming and can cause some issues, especially time-outs. To minimize these problems, try configuring the following settings:
Process Model - Idle Time-Out
Modify the Idle Time-Out setting for AWAppPool7, FilePAMAppPool and/or EPAMAppPool4 application pools in the IIS.
For example: Go to IIS -> Server Name -> Application Pools -> AWAppPool7 and click Advanced settings. Set the value to zero.
Web Sites - Session Time-Out
Export task can run several minutes or hours. When the task is running a session time-out can occur. This will cause the failure of the task operation.
To prevent this from happening, modify the Time-out setting for ArchiveWeb, ExchangePAMWS and/or FilePAMWebService web sites in the IIS to large enough number.
For example: Go to IIS -> Server Name -> Sites -> Default Web Site -> ArchiveWeb click on Session State
Please note: for ArchiveWeb web application make sure the sessionState setting in web.config is synchronized with IIS cookie time-out. Application session time-out will expire when the IIS cookie time-out value is reached therefore for correct ArchiveWeb functionality the sessionState in web.config should be set to same or lower value.
