Make sure to add the name of an existing application pool, the one from the TechNet article is just an example that should be replace with an existing one.

To get a list of the application pools in your environment you can use Get-SPServiceApplicationPool detailed here: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff607544.aspx
