We are using Jenkins as our Continous Integration Server. One of our project requires restarting IIS website on other Server. We can use "cd %windir%\system32\inetsrv appcmd stop site /site.name:xyz" appcmd start site /site.name:xyz" to restart xyz site from the same server.

We are unable to CD to network path using CD. I tried with Powershell, and I can cd to network location. I have tried Stop-Site, which doesn't works. I want powershell script or batch file, which can help me to restart IIS website on other server.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    You can use iisreset with other machine too. Only use iisreset <servername>, change <servername> with another server. Commented May 5, 2016 at 14:33

    IIS Reset is working that way, but it will be great, if I can only stop 1 site on other server. Commented May 6, 2016 at 14:22
  • does not this command require a username and password? invoke-command -computername $serverName {cd C:\Windows\System32\; ./cmd.exe /c "iisreset /noforce /RESTART" } I have this script and is working on same machine but on remote. Commented Jun 1, 2020 at 13:47
