Stop and Start Individual Services Using the Command Line

Circumstances may arise that require you to stop and start only one or two Arcserve Backup services. Arcserve Backup lets you use the command line to stop individual services.

To stop and start the Arcserve Backup services using the command line

1. Start the Windows command line.
2. After the command line opens, enter one of the following commands:
   • NET START [enginename]
   • NET STOP [enginename]

   Substitute one of the following for [enginename]:

   • Arcserve Communication Foundation (Global)

     Arcserve Communication Foundation (Global)
     

   • Arcserve Dashboard Sync Service

     CADashboardSync
     

   • Arcserve Central Remoting Server

     Arcserve_RemotingServer
     

   • Arcserve Communication Foundation

     Arcserve Communication Foundation
     

   • Arcserve Management Service

     CASMgmtSvc
     

   • Arcserve Tape Engine

     CASTapeEngine
     

   • Arcserve Job Engine

     CASJobEngine
     

   • Arcserve Database Engine

     CASDbEngine
     

   • Arcserve Message Engine

     CASMessageEngine
     

   • Arcserve Discovery Service

     CASDiscovery
     

   • Arcserve Domain Server

     CasUnivDomainSvr
     

   • Arcserve Service Controller

     CasSvcControlSvr
     

   • Arcserve PortMapper

     CASportmap
     

     Note: If stop and restart the Arcserve Remote Procedure Call service (CASportmap) using the Command Line (or the Computer Management console), the service cannot communicate with its port assignments properly. This can prevent a user account with caroot equivalence from logging in to the Arcserve Backup domain. To remedy the inability to log in to the Arcserve Backup domain, run the cstop command and then run the cstart command. This enables the service to communicate properly and lets the user account with caroot equivalence log in to the Arcserve Backup domain.

   • Alert Notification Server

     "Alert Notification Server"
     

     Note: For this service, you must provide quotation marks.

   • Arcserve Universal Agent

     CASUniversalAgent
     

   Note: Repeat this step to start and stop each Arcserve Backup service.
