All services used by the system start automatically when the appropriate
computer is started or when the appropriate software is installed. If you want to manually
start the services, disable the Auto-Start Services when OS Starts option from the
Service Control Manager window (this option is enabled by default).
To start the services on Windows:
Launch the Service Control Manager from the Start | Programs
menu.
Select All Services
from the Services field. Optionally, you can also select
Base Services, CommServe Services, CommNet Services, or MediaAgent Services.
Click Start to restart the specific service(s). When the services are
restarted successfully, the Service Control Manager window updates the status of the
services you selected from Stopped to Running.
Optionally, you can verify which services were started by viewing them
from the Windows Services window, available in the Control Panel.
Resume any jobs you suspended prior to stopping the services.
Services used by the system must be running in order for data protection, data
recovery operations, and all jobs to run properly. Generally, it is
strongly recommended that you should leave all services running.
Stopping these services should be avoided whenever possible.
Use the Job Controller to verify that no jobs (data protection operations,
data recovery operations, etc.) are in progress. If a job is in progress and in the
Running or Waiting state, use the Job Controller to suspend or kill the job.
Alternately, you can wait for the job to complete.
Stopping either the CommServe services or the Base services will stop all
operations that depend on that CommServe.
When you stop services on a given system, the functions dependent
upon the system's services will no longer be available to the rest of the
CommServe.
All services depend upon the Base services, therefore, stopping
the base services stops all services.
For the Windows 2000, Windows 2003, and Windows XP platforms, services will
automatically recover if they are stopped unexpectedly. If the services
stop unexpectedly, the services will attempt to restart every two minutes until they start
successfully. While the Server Event Manager Service is restarting,
(either by a user restarting the service manually or by auto-recovery), the
Job Manager Service and the Media and Library Manager service will also be restarted.
Click the service you want to stop from the Services field.
By default, the Auto-Start Services when OS Starts option is selected,
meaning that all services applicable to the local computer will start automatically when
the computer is restarted.
If you want to start all services manually instead,
clear this option (to disable the auto-start feature).
Click Stop to stop the specific service(s).
When the services are
stopped successfully, the Service Control Manager window updates the
All Services status from Running to Stopped.
Optionally, you can verify which services were stopped by viewing them from the Windows
Services window.
Press Enter to continue. This populates the NW Servers drop-down menu.
Select an NW Server.
Click Start to start the services. When the services are
started successfully, the Service Manager window updates
the status of the services you selected from Stopped to Running.
Start from NetWare Server
Run the following command from your local computer:
Load Galaxy
This should start the services.
Resume any jobs you suspended prior to stopping all services.
Press Enter to continue. This populates the NW Servers drop-down menu.
Select an NW Server.
Click Stop to stop the services. When the services are
stopped successfully, the Service Manager window updates
the status of the services you selected from Running to Stopped.
Stop from NetWare Server
Run the following command from your local computer:
Select Retrieve Remote Clients. The Computer field is automatically populated
with the names of the Windows clients within the CommCell.
From the Computer field, select the client computer from which you
want to stop or start the services.
Click Stop or Start to stop or restart the specific service(s).
When the services are restarted successfully, the Service Control Manager window updates
the status of the Base services from Running to Stopped,
or from Stopped to Running.
Optionally, you can verify which the services on the remote computer that were started by viewing them
from the Windows Services window.
To start the Service Control Manager using the CommCell Console,
the CommCell Console must be accessed using a stand-alone or installed
version of
the CommCell Console.
The Service Control Manager cannot be accessed from
the CommCell Console when it is run as a Remote Web-Based Application.
Another component such as a CommServe, MediaAgent or Agent software
must also be installed on the computer.
To open the Service Control Manager from the CommCell Console:

location is C:\Program Files\Company Name.
Right-click, select
