How to check app pool last recycled

Question

is it possible to check when i recycled the app pool last time, i want to check the date when my app pool was last recycled, is there anything in IIS i can get this info.

Answer 1

You could easily find the latest recycle time by using this powershell snippet:

(Get-Process -Id ).StartTime

Therefore find the process id of your web application in task manager.
First add the following columns via Tools > Select columns... : select PID and Command Line.
Look for any w3wp.exe process and find your application by examining the command-line (application pool name is part of it) and note down its PID.
Then run the powershell script to find the latest recycle time:

Hope this helps
