INTRODUCTION
This article includes information about the configuration of cluster resources in Internet Information Services 7.0.



MORE INFORMATION
In earlier versions of Internet Information Services (IIS), Web sites and FTP sites can be configured as cluster resources in a clustered environment that uses Microsoft Cluster Services (MSCS). In IIS 7.0, Web sites and FTP sites cannot be configured as cluster resources.

To configure IIS 7.0 in a high-availability scalable environment that contains multiple servers, you must use Network Load Balancing (NLB). The Clusweb.vbs file and the Clusftp.vbs file that were used in IIS 6.0 to configure Web sites and FTP sites as cluster resources are incorrectly included in IIS 7.0. These two files cannot be used in IIS 7.0.

For more information about Network Load Balancing (NLB), visit the following Microsoft Web site:
