First you must create the application pool for the virtual
server that hosts the portal sites.
- On the taskbar, click Start, point to Administrative
Tools, and then click Internet Information Services (IIS)
Manager.
- In the Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager
console, right-click Application Pools, point to New,
and then click Application Pool.
- In the Add New Application Pool dialog box, in the
Application pool ID box, type a name for the application
pool.
- In the Application pool settings section, click Use
default settings for new application pool.
- Click OK.
After you create the new application pool, modify the properties
of the new application pool to ensure that the parameters on the
Recycling, Performance, and Health tabs match the parameters for
the default application pool. You can either use the same identity
or specify a new identity on the Identity tab, depending on the
purpose of the new application pool.
Tip
In step 4 of the
preceding procedure, you can also choose the option to use an
existing application pool as a template. To do this, click Use
existing application pool as template, and then select
MSSharePointPortalAppPool from the list. If you do this, you
need to modify the identity only. The other properties (on the
Recycling, Performance, and Health tabs) will match those of
MSSharePointPortalAppPool.
