Not all AppPools fire events on recycle. Why?

We have few app pools set up and we wanted to configure them so that they all
fire events when recycled. I can not figure out why some of them fire these
events and why some don't. I even looked at the metadata file directly trying
to figure out what's different about those, which fire events and those which
don't.

Below is output of 'adsutil enum w3svc/AppPools' command:

KeyType : (STRING) "IIsApplicationPools"
PeriodicRestartTime : (INTEGER) 1740
PeriodicRestartRequests : (INTEGER) 0
MaxProcesses : (INTEGER) 1
PingingEnabled : (BOOLEAN) True
IdleTimeout : (INTEGER) 20
RapidFailProtection : (BOOLEAN) True
SMPAffinitized : (BOOLEAN) False
SMPProcessorAffinityMask : (INTEGER) 4294967295
StartupTimeLimit : (INTEGER) 90
ShutdownTimeLimit : (INTEGER) 90
PingInterval : (INTEGER) 30
PingResponseTime : (INTEGER) 90
DisallowOverlappingRotation : (BOOLEAN) False
DisallowRotationOnConfigChange : (BOOLEAN) False
OrphanWorkerProcess : (BOOLEAN) False
AppPoolQueueLength : (INTEGER) 1000
CPULimit : (INTEGER) 0
CPUResetInterval : (INTEGER) 5
AppPoolIdentityType : (INTEGER) 2
PeriodicRestartMemory : (INTEGER) 0
PeriodicRestartPrivateMemory : (INTEGER) 0
RapidFailProtectionInterval : (INTEGER) 5
RapidFailProtectionMaxCrashes : (INTEGER) 5
LoadBalancerCapabilities : (INTEGER) 2
LogEventOnRecycle : (INTEGER) 255
AppPoolRecycleTime : (BOOLEAN) True
AppPoolRecycleRequests : (BOOLEAN) True
AppPoolRecycleSchedule : (BOOLEAN) True
AppPoolRecycleMemory : (BOOLEAN) True
AppPoolRecycleIsapiUnhealthy : (BOOLEAN) True
AppPoolRecycleOnDemand : (BOOLEAN) True
AppPoolRecycleConfigChange : (BOOLEAN) True
AppPoolRecyclePrivateMemory : (BOOLEAN) True

What are those events not captured ? did you restart IIS services after
setting it ?
