Automatic load of Reporting Services application pool on startup

  • I'm not an IIS genius, so help me out here.  I know theres got to be a way to do this...

    Is there a way to set up SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services application pool to automatically start up and load on the start or restart of IIS?

  • Well, I've partially solved this by simply writing an OS script that calls the reporting services web service on the restart of the box.  However there has to be some kind of initialization parameter that you can set in IIS itself that tells it to automatically start a .NET web application.

    I've already disabled the 30 minute thread killer which unloads it after 30 minutes of activity (Application Pool Properties, Performance tab, Idle timeout, uncheck Shutdown worker processes after being idle...).  This resolved the issue with the application having to re-initialize when an end user called it.

    I think I saw where IIS 7.0 had some kind of feature to automatically initialize a certain application / application pool on startup.  On the surface, it doesn't appear that IIS 6.0 has this same functionality.
