I have seen a lot of questions about checking all services that are configure to start automatically. This can be done with a script.\u00c2\u00a0This script checks if the service is configure to start automatic, if it is and it is not running, a warning event will be written in the local application log. You can then pickup that event with Operations Manager and generate an alert.<\/p>\n
strComputer = “.”
\nSet objWMIService = GetObject(“winmgmts:” _
\n\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0 & “{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\\\” & strComputer & “\\root\\cimv2”)<\/p>\n
Set colListOfServices = objWMIService.ExecQuery _
\n\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0 (“Select * from Win32_Service”)<\/p>\n
For Each objService in colListOfServices<\/p>\n
If (objService.StartMode = “Auto”) and (objService.State = “Stopped”) then<\/p>\n
Const EVENT_WARNING = 2
\nSet objShell = CreateObject(“Wscript.Shell”)
\nobjShell.LogEvent EVENT_WARNING, _
\n\u00c2\u00a0“Service ” & objService.DisplayName & ” is not running. (” & objService.Name & “)”
\nEnd If
\nNext<\/p>\n
Remember to test scripts in a test environment first.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
