Command Operations

Monitoring Services

While running normally, the Server Manager is constantly monitoring the services (at ten second intervals). If a service is taken offline or fails, the Server Manager attempts to restart it.

Attempts to restart a stopped service are persistent; that is, as long as the service is not running, the Server Manager continues to issue restarts indefinitely.

An error state in a running service is handled differently than an offline service. Server Manager attempts to restart the service up to three times. If it remains in an error state, Server Manager continues to monitor the service but does not persist in automatic restart attempts.
