How can I use Application Pools in IIS 6.0 to group together web sites?

Open Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager
  • Expand the computer name
  • Expand Application Pools
  • Create a new application pool by right-clicking Application Pools and selecting New -> Application Pool
  • Give the application pool a name. For instance, "HighResourceSites"
  • Select "Use default settings for new application pool" - (you can customize it later)
  • Click OK
To move a web site into this new application pool:
  • Expand Web Sites
  • Right-click on the respective web site, select Properties
  • Click the Home Directory tab
  • Near the bottom, change the Application Pool selection to "HighResourceSites"
  • Click OK
