Do I have to restart IIS if I drop a new DLL in the bin of my virtual directory?
The core IIS services (Http. sys, W3SVC, WAS) never need to be restarted. Instead, they automatically detect any relevant configuration changes (e.g. new website being created, or a change in your application pool settings) and apply them on the fly.
Configuring Auto-Start with IIS ManagerIn the Connections pane, select the Application Pools node, revealing the Application Pools pane in the main view. Select the application pool for which you wish to enable Auto-Start. Locate the Start Mode option under the General group and set it to AlwaysRunning. Click OK.
Does IISRESET recycle the application pools? The correct answer is no. Instead, IISRESET causes the shutdown of all active IIS worker processes, kills them if they do not stop in time.
No you do not have to, the application will recycle, but an IISReset is NOT needed
No you don't have to restart IIS. However, your worker process will automatically recycle itself.
