Configuring Recycle Settings for the IIS Application Pool

If you configure the application pool to recycle at a scheduled time using the IIS Manager, consider configuring the following recycle settings for the IIS Application Pools:

• Ensure that the specific times you define do not coincide with your Start-of-Day (SOD) or periods of peak sales activity.

• Set the Memory Based Maximums to less than half of the available server memory.

• Set the Simphony2 App Pool Pipeline mode to Classic.

• Set the Disable Overlapped Recycle setting to True for the Simphony2 App Pool.

In addition to the Simphony2 App Pool, the following IIS App Pools are also installed:

• ImportExportAPIPool: For the Import Export Service.

• SimphonyAppPool: For the Simphony Web Portal.

• WCCPool: For the Engagement feature.

These App Pool’s Pipeline mode settings can remain on their default settings.
