How to increase the Private Memory limit of the IAS Application Pool

Applies from Application Suite 201x (any version)
to version Application Suite 201x (any version)

Description

In some circustances when an high number of users is interacting with the web services of the IAS, a worker process serving the application pool 'StoneAppPool' could request a recycle because it reached its private bytes memory limit, causing all the active web applications/connections involved to get disconnected

Cause

In case of consecutive events in a short time interval, the OS could automatically disable the Application pool interrupting any further usage until a manual restart. In the log file you can see:

Solution

1. Open the IIS Management Console

2. Select the Application Pools

3. Right- click and select Recycling on the Application Pool named "StoneAppPool" and "StoneAppPoolBib"
