If like me you find youself with a bunch of orphaned application pools in your sharepoint server (trying to set up User Profile Sync) and you want to delete them, you will need these steps:
Open up the Sharepoint 2010 Management Shell
|
1 |
PS C:\Users\sharepoint> Get-SPServiceApplicationPool | select Name |
You should get results similar to this:
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 |
Name ---- UPS App Pool SecurityTokenServiceApplicationPool SharePoint Web Services Default SharePoint Web Services System |
Now issue the Remove Command
|
1 |
PS C:\Users\Sharepoint> Remove-SPServiceApplicationPool -Identity "UPS App Pool" |
You will get prompted to confirm
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 |
Confirm Are you sure you want to perform this action? Performing operation "Remove-SPServiceApplicationPool" on Target "SPIisWebServiceApplicationPool Name=UPS App Pool". [Y] Yes [A] Yes to All [N] No [L] No to All [S] Suspend [?] Help (default is "Y"):Y |
Done.
Good bye App Pool
