| Oct 1, 2014 at 15:48 | comment | added | Waqas Sarwar MVP♦ | If you want to expose the same content in a Web application to different types of users by using additional URLs or authentication methods, you can extend an existing Web application into a new zone. When you extend the Web application into a new zone, you create a separate Internet Information Services (IIS) Web site to serve the same content, but with a unique URL and authentication type.technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc261698(v=office.14).aspx | |
| Oct 1, 2014 at 15:47 | comment | added | Brie | Sorry - so I'm missing why then both sites sharing the same content db is a bad idea. | |
| Oct 1, 2014 at 15:43 | comment | added | Waqas Sarwar MVP♦ | it extend the same web app and yes create new IIS site ...but both sites shared same content databases. that's what i am saying | |
| Oct 1, 2014 at 15:41 | comment | added | Brie | "becuase same web app for mysite and non mysites" - not sure what you're saying here. Extending a web app creates another IIS site, but does not duplicate/move/copy content. | |
| Oct 1, 2014 at 15:30 | comment | added | Waqas Sarwar MVP♦ | extending the existing web again not good idea becuase same web app for mysite and non mysites... | |
| Oct 1, 2014 at 15:29 | comment | added | Brie | After doing some reading, it seems like the best thing to do would be to move the whole web app to a new URL. Or maybe "Extend" the web app so it is accessible from another URL? | |
| Sep 25, 2014 at 20:24 | comment | added | Waqas Sarwar MVP♦ | if you read both links i mentioned in my response, 1st will explain about the steps what to do....2nd will explain why it is not recommended. | |
| Sep 25, 2014 at 20:22 | comment | added | Brie | Your answer here appears to be helpful - but lacks necessary detail. "update your user profile services for mysite host location" - I think I know what you mean there... "Create Managed Path" - do you mean add a new managed path? What are Best Practices here? Should I expect errors to happen before everything is completed? I don't know what to expect in any of these intermediate steps. | |
