Restarting IIS application pool based on directory

Nearly finished with my project, however I can't seem to be able to get the final section working:

  1. Fetch all Application Pools on the server.
  2. Loop through all directories of the application pools until I find a match.
  3. Restart the matching application pool.

That's all I'm trying to do, however I can't get it working. The code I have managed to drag together so far, only returns a list of the application pool names:

    public static string[] FetchAppPools()
    {
        List<string> lvAppPools = new List<string>();

        DirectoryEntry lvWebService = new DirectoryEntry("IIS://localhost/W3SVC");
        IEnumerator ie = lvWebService.Children.GetEnumerator();
        DirectoryEntry lvServer = null;

        while(ie.MoveNext())
        {
            lvServer = (DirectoryEntry)ie.Current;

            if (lvServer.SchemaClassName == "IIsWebServer")
                lvAppPools.Add(lvServer.Properties["ServerComment"][0].ToString());
        }

        return lvAppPools.ToArray();
    }

How would I need to change the above code to also bring me back the directories associated with each of the application pools (C:\inetpub\Website1)?

Thank you.

Can try this one

 var directoryEntry = new DirectoryEntry(APPLICATION_POOL_URL, USERNAME,   PASSWORD);

       // call to stop the Application Pool
     directoryEntry.Invoke("Stop", null);

      // call to start the Application Pool
          directoryEntry.Invoke("Start", null);

     // call to recycle the Application Pool
        directoryEntry.Invoke("Recycle", null);

Basically you have to call directoryEntry.Invoke("Stop/Start/Recycle", null);
