3.1.4.1 IAppHostAdminManager

The IAppHostAdminManager interface represents a read-only interface to an administration system that is implemented on the server.

The administration system consists primarily of a set of administration objects of varying complexity, which are accessed through the IAppHostElement interface (section 3.1.4.12) and exist at one or more paths that are exposed by the server. The administration system allows access to individual IAppHostElement objects that are available at specific paths and also provides access to merged IAppHostElement objects that consist of the merged contents of individual IAppHostElement objects.

Secondarily, the administration system provides access to, and the setting of, specific system behaviors that are available for administration objects, which are represented by the term "metadata". Metadata allows a caller to modify and inspect the behavior of the administration system.

The IAppHostAdminManager interface is used by clients to access (for read-only purposes) the contents of the administration system without altering the contents of the system. A tool that seeks to display the administration objects that are contained in the system is an example of a consumer of the IAppHostAdminManager interface.

The IAppHostAdminManager interface inherits opnums 0–2 from the IUnknown interface.
