<div class="content" name="IAppHostAdminManager" uuid="0d8b3e85-b028-42a1-a373-3fbb8be6e57e"><p>The IAppHostAdminManager interface represents a read-only <a href="4e36e522-a35d-4fec-bc9c-6ed14d49d5ca#gt_95913fbd-3262-47ae-b5eb-18e6806824b9" data-linktype="relative-path">interface</a> to an
administration system that is implemented on the server. </p><p>The administration system consists primarily of a set of
administration objects of varying complexity, which are accessed through the <a href="59774887-09e3-4de5-ad8e-4794f404b123" data-linktype="relative-path">IAppHostElement</a> 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. </p><p>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 &#34;metadata&#34;.
Metadata allows a caller to modify and inspect the behavior of the
administration system. </p><p>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.</p><p>The IAppHostAdminManager interface inherits <a href="4e36e522-a35d-4fec-bc9c-6ed14d49d5ca#gt_e127848e-c66d-427d-b3aa-9f904fa4ada7" data-linktype="relative-path">opnums</a> 0–2 from the <a href="../ms-dcom/2b4db106-fb79-4a67-b45f-63654f19c54c" data-linktype="relative-path">IUnknown</a>
