Finding Service names

[johnfli]

How do I find the name of the service for items that auto start?

I want to be able to schedule a task to shutdown and restart my SQL Server
Service, the STORE for my Exchange Server and the antivirus for Exchange.

services.msc

You can net start a service by its friendly name if you enclose the name in
quotes, or use the service name value that will be displayed at the top of
the service properties dialog in services.msc.

Example:
Friendly service name: Application Layer Gateway Service
Service name as displayed in the properties for this service: ALG

Thanks for your reply, I will try it.

As for why, it is becasue Exchange suxks up all the memory and the system
starts slowing down. And it is competeing with SQL sucking memory as well.

Oh, you're running Exchange and SQL on the same server. EEGS!! I'm sure
you're aware that both of those applications like to bogart all memory and
they should be run on separate machines. But this of course is in the ideal
world where everyone has as many servers as they need and budgets don't
exist... ;]

Luckily enough, we are a smaller company so I can get away with having them
on the same machine. I am thinking about telling the Prez that we need to
get a Terabyte of ram and how much that would cost. Then after his eyes
stop bulging out, I'll tell him that I only need half a Terabyte.
