NCM not available after reboot

beckyboo, take a look at this article, any of the services listed in the service manager should be running to ensure accessibility

Wow thats a very fast and encouraging welcome to the forum! Thank you.

You were right, all of my services were not running. Very useful tool.

All up and running again now and I can access the service however how do I make sure they all load up automatically should the server crash etc?

Thanks for your help!

So generally they do start up automatically by default. After the install, in the service properties they should be set to autostart. This article says it might help to use the delayed start: Orion Services do not start after a reboot when SQL is installed on the Orion server (solarwinds.com) 

I would give it another restart just to test it if they are set correctly. If they still fail to start, I'd want support to take a look at my logs and find out why.

After restart they didn't come back up but I changed the start-up of the service to delayed as suggested in the article and it now works perfectly! Thank you!
