CPUAction

The CPUAction property configures the action(s) that IIS takes when Microsoft Windows NT ? job objects run. Only one Windows NT job object exists per application pool, therefore the CPUAction property is configured on a per application pool basis.

CPUAction can be set to only one of the following possible values:

Constant	Value	Description
MD_CPU_NO_ACTION	0x00000000	No action is taken except that a warning is written to the event log when the CPU limit is exceeded.
MD_CPU_KILL_W3WP	0x00000001	Application pool worker processes that exceed their CPU limit will be forced to shut down.
