Recycle IIS application pool from LTM

Gusf, can I assume this is in relation to your previous post, "Reboot a Windows node from LTM"? The simplest answer is that there's nothing built in to do this. You would necessarily need to have some process/service running on the Windows machine that listens on a protocol the LTM supports (ex. HTTP, Telnet, FTP, SNMP, etc.) and then responds accordingly. I'd also venture that this would be somewhat dangerous, allowing a remote command the ability to shutdown the machine or restart a service, but certainly possible. If you can support a separate web service and the code necessary to affect system settings, then that would probably be the easiest, followed closely I think by Telnet and SNMP.

It might actually be easier perhaps to have a service running on the a Windows box that monitors local system resources and performs necessary functions. You could use an iControl powershell script to alert the LTM of the changes, or simply have good monitors on the LTM to detect the outage.

Thanks Kevin.
