ServiceRestart (Function)

In french: ServiceRedémarre

Restarts a service (already started). This service can be found on the local computer or on a remote computer. The options specified when the service was previously started are automatically taken into account (the command line for example).

Example

// Restart the service in the TABLE_Service control
IF ServiceRestart(COL_Name[TABLE_Service]) = False THEN
Error(ErrorInfo(errMessage))
END

Syntax

<Result> = ServiceRestart(<Service name> [, <Remote computer>])

<Result>: Boolean

True if the restart operation was requested,
False otherwise. To get more details on the error, use ErrorInfo.

<Service name>: Character string

Name of the service to restart.

<Remote computer>: Optional character string

IP address of the remote computer in xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx format (returned by NetIPAddress) or name of the remote computer (returned by NetMachineName). This parameter is used to restart a service on another computer. To use this option, the user must be administrator of remote computer.
If this parameter is not specified or if it corresponds to an empty string (""), the service is handled locally.

Remarks

Operating mode

ServiceRestart sends a request to the service manager for restarting a service. This operation may not be performed immediately. To find out the status of the service, use ServiceWaitStatus.
