Identify app pool used by IIS site

Hello,

I have a lot of web sites on my IIS server. If I know the name of the application pool, what is the best way to quick identify which site is using it?

Thanks

Hi,

sorry I missread that you said you have a lot of sites.

create a new file calls listapppool.ps1 with the following content:

[Void][Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("Microsoft.Web.Administration")

$sm = New-Object Microsoft.Web.Administration.ServerManager

foreach($site in $sm.Sites)
{
    $root = $site.Applications | where { $_.Path -eq "/" }
    Write-Output ("Site: " + $site.Name + " | Pool: " + $root.ApplicationPoolName)
}

Open in new window

Open an administrative command line prompt and run powershell.

Run the script in powershell:

.\listapppool.ps1

Open in new window

it will display all sites and their corresponding Application Pools.

Cheers

IIS is Internet Information Services, the web server included with Windows Server operating systems. All current versions are built on a modular architecture; modules can be added or removed individually so that those required for specific functionality are installed. The full installation of IIS includes HTTP, security, content, compression, caching, logging and diagnostics.
