We probably need to go backwards in history a little bit to clarify the 
situation.
 
Back in the 6.x days, AR System came with a complimentary license for 
ServletExec to serve as the JSP engine when a customer was running IIS.  In the 
7.0.x timeframe, the OEM agreement with New Atlanta expired and as a continued 
convenience to customers, BMC began including Tomcat in the distribution to 
server as the JSP engine for IIS.  Tomcat could also be used a the JSP engine 
for Apache web server.
 
Tomcat can, of course, serve both functions on its own and this has become a 
popular installation choice - i.e. just using Tomcat.  
 
So IIS is still supported as a web server with ServletExec or Tomcat behind it 
(as per the compatibility matrix), but those combinations are not occurring as 
often they were 5+ years ago.  Apache web server is also supported with Tomcat 
as the JSP, but that's rarely seen anymore.
 
Also, I do have to mention that AR System server is not supported on Windows 8 
- so perhaps that may be contributing to the issue you're seeing.  It's only 
officially supported on the Windows Server product editions.
 
Thanks,

Please, be picky, we can handle the truth here, and I certainly prefer it.

So, we have one vote for, one vote against (that stuff is cached by IIS for
mid-tier if IIS is used).

Can someone break the tie? Preferably someone in the know. Where is the
David Easter replacement? (not that he can really be replaced but you know
what I mean)

I'm not trying to be picky, but IIS wasn't caching anything unless a module
or whatever was installed to do so. Everything went back to Tomcat.
