My IIS website setup:
www.mycompany.com <-Website
---app1
---app2
---app3
app1, app2 and app3 are applications - not IIS virtual directories.
There are four applications pools named sitepool, app1pool, app2pool and app3pool.
www.mycompany.com => sitepool
app1 => app1pool
app2 => app2pool
app3 => app3pool
Each app pool has its own recycle schedule. My question is will recycling the sitepool will also recycle app1pool, app2pool and app3pool? There is nothing hosted under the website itself. The website is just a container for the three asp.net apps.
