With IIS6, is it necessary to restart IIS if I change an application's Application Pool? I'm pretty sure the answer is no, but it would be great if someone could confirm this, and possibly include a link to some documentation.

I changed the app pool without restarting IIS and didn't have any problems, so the answer seems to be yes. The last sentence of this Microsoft link states that "you can assign applications to another application pool while the server is running."
