Important

You must be a member of the Administrators group on the server to access the Services on Server page.

  1. On the top navigation bar, click Operations.

  2. On the Operations page, in the Topology and Services section, click Services on server.

  3. If the selected server is not the server for which you want to view services, on the Services on Server page, click Change server on the Server menu.

    • On the Select Server page, click the server for which you want to view services.
  4. To filter the listed services, select one of the following on the View menu:

    • Configurable. Select this to view services that can be stopped or started.

    • All. Select this to view all services hosted by the selected server.

    • To stop or start a service, click Start or Stop in the column for the service that you want to start or stop.

    • If a message box appears asking whether you want to proceed, click OK.

      Warning

      Stopping a service can have serious consequences. For example, stopping the Microsoft Windows SharePoint Services Search service causes the service to be uninstalled on the target server and all index files to be destroyed permanently.

      Note

      Ensure that you have access to manage services.
