Installing Voicemail Pro: Server/Client Installation

Using a Batch File to Start Services

In some instances, certain computers might not respond quickly enough in order to start all of the Avaya services in the correct order. In this circumstance, it can be advisable to create a batch file which will delay the start of these services until the PC is fully running.

Avaya IP Office Services can be started successfully at system start-up using a scheduled task that initiates the batch file below. This batch file ensures that the services will start successfully and in the proper order.

1.Set all Avaya services listed below to Manual start. Do not include Key Server.

2.Create the batch file below and save it to %SYSTEMROOT%. Only include lines for the services which are installed.

@echo off

rem Wait 60 seconds before execute.

timeout /t 60

3. Create a scheduled task to start the batch file at system start-up.
