changing the recovery behaviour of a service?

[Greenman]

Hi,

Is it possible to use PGO's to change the behaviour of a
service.

I want to change the default behaviours on Recovery, from
Reboot on Recovery to No Action Taken.

Any ideas Folks???????????

You can set services to start automatically, enabled or disabled via group
policy. You could also set the permissions of what users or groups would be
allowed to start or stop the services.

The settings for this are in the Group Policy Editor. Go to Computer
Configuration->Windows Settings->Security Settings->Services.

For these to take affect, the server(s) must be in an OU/container to which
a GPO with these settings is linked, and the server(s) must have Read Allow
and Apply Group Policy Allow permissions on that policy.

Please repost if you have additional questions or concerns.

You could probably do such with a startup script using the sc command which
may or may not already be on your computers, but you certainly could copy it
to them. Type "sc failure" for more information on that command. --- Steve
