Get the application pool for a web application using the IIS7 PowerShell snap-in

 

Recently I was playing around with the IIS 7 PowerShell snap-in and I found a simple way of obtaining what application pool a given web application is running under.

The code is pretty simple and to do this, run from a standard PowerShell console:

##Import the IIS Admin module – you will need this!!!

Import-Module WebAdministration

 

##Get the Application Pool for a given website – Replace ‘Default Web Site’ with your site and you find what app pool the site is running under:

Get-Item "IIS:\Sites\Default Web Site"| Select-Object applicationPool

 

Although this isn't really SharePoint related, it will save you heaps of time rather than having to fire up the UI  Smile
