Start Services on Windows

Before You Begin

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:

  1. Launch the Service Control Manager from the Start | Programs menu.
  2. Select All Services from the Services field. Optionally, you can also select Base Services, CommServe Services, CommNet Services, or MediaAgent Services.
  3. 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.

  4. Resume any jobs you suspended prior to stopping the services.
