Start or stop a service remotely

You can use SQLdm Mobile to start or stop a SQL Server Agent service that is located on a remotely monitored server.

TIP

When the selected service is running on a virtual SQL Server instance (a SQL Server instance hosted by a Windows Server cluster), you cannot stop or start the service using SQLdm. Instead, use the native Microsoft SQL Server tools to manage this service.

To stop or start a service:

  1. Navigate to the Dashboard tab for the affected server.
  2. Under Areas, tap Services.
  3. On the Services view, tap the SQL Server Agent tab.
  4. Under Agent Status, move the toggle to either Stop or Start.
