There is a bug in the IIS 7 user interface which prevents setting the idleTimeout property of an application pool when both the time (“Regular Time Interval (minutes)”) property and idleTimeout properties are set to zero.

A quick trip to the command line and the appcmd interface can solve the problem. The following command will set the idleTimeout property to 10 minutes.

appcmd set apppool "Application Pool Name" /processModel.idleTimeout:0.00:10:00

When properly executed, the command will output the following:

APPPOOL object "Application Pool Name" changed

Governance is something that should be at the top of the list for any SharePoint implementation (no matter how small). The following are some checklists/whitepapers/etc. provided by Microsoft that can get you started.

• Plan Governance
• SharePoint Governance Checklist Guide
• SharePoint Collaboration Service Governance Plan
• SharePoint Intranet Portal Governance White Paper
• SharePoint Deployment Guide and Checklists

This is of course only sampling of what’s available. Feel free to sound off in the comments with your go-to resources for SharePoint governance.

Looks like it’s time to upgrade to Snow Leopard.
