Is anyone using an Application monitor in their environment to monitor this service? We just need a simple up/down monitor. I can't find a template on thwack or anywhere else I might borrow.
Gerstnc,
Remote desktop to the server, find the service and right click, choose properties. Get the service name (not the display name). Highlight and copy it to rule out type-os. Although aLTeReGo's post is correct, I have seen spaces in service names in the Service Control Manager that aren't really there in the actual service name, and to be clear, the Service Control Manager will give you the service DISPLAY name, not the name of the actual service. HOWEVER, having said this, if you hover over the display name, it will show the actual service name, but you can't copy it from there.
Thanks!
