Starting and Stopping the app at shutdown and startup

[Former Member]

We're running windows 2008 r2.

I've written powershell scripts to stop and start the sap application at boot time.

Is there any other way to do this other than writing scripts? Can I get the sap service to stop/start the application?

Thanks,

Daniel

Dear Daniel.

You can use SAP MC console to stop start SAP. SAP management console can be used to manage more than one SAP instances as well.

sapstartsrv.exe just provides a http service for SAPMC in case you would like it to start your SAP through web based SAPMC. Therefore it is not stopped even after the server is stopped.

  If you are making use of SAP MMC in windows, or giving direct startsap/stopsap command, then there is no use of this service. you can keep it started or kill it without hesitation. If you will start the instance, this service will automatically start.
