How do I set the recycling for a specific time for all of my current and future application pools in the IIS Manager.
I have tried to achieve this by going under Set Application Pool Defaults -> Recycling -> Specific Times, but this doesn't affect already created application pools.
Is there any way to achieve this - maybe with some kind of PowerShell script ?
You could use below PowerShell script to set the application pool recycling time for all the application pool:
Set-WebConfigurationProperty -pspath 'MACHINE/WEBROOT/APPHOST' -filter "system.applicationHost/applicationPools/applicationPoolDefaults/recycling/periodicRestart" -name "time" -value "1.08:00:00"
using the command line:
appcmd.exe set config -section:system.applicationHost/applicationPools /applicationPoolDefaults.recycling.periodicRestart.time:"1.08:00:00" /commit:apphost
to set periodic restart value:
appcmd.exe set config -section:system.applicationHost/applicationPools /+"applicationPoolDefaults.recycling.periodicRestart.schedule.[value='07:55:00']" /commit:apphost
command line:
Add-WebConfigurationProperty -pspath 'MACHINE/WEBROOT/APPHOST' -filter "system.applicationHost/applicationPools/applicationPoolDefaults/recycling/periodicRestart/schedule" -name "." -value @{value='07:55:00'}
