Server Monitor

ServiceMonitor is a Windows executable designed to be used as the entrypoint process when running IIS inside a Windows Server container.

ServiceMonitor monitors the status of the w3svc service and will exit when the service state changes from SERVICE_RUNNING to either one of SERVICE_STOPPED, SERVICE_STOP_PENDING, SERVICE_PAUSED or SERVICE_PAUSE_PENDING.
