reboot instances

  • hi,

    I have 3 instances in a server n I need to reboot 2 instances on weekends,the other one has production databases so it should be online all the time.

    my question is where to set these settings

    Thank you

  • Hello Gary,

    First question is to why must you reboot these instances weekly? This can be done via a scheduled task if needed.

  • If I am reading this correctly, you have 3 instances on the same physical server - so you do not want to reboot, you want to stop and start the SQL service?

    You could do this from the SQL Agent on the 3rd instance with a NET STOP and NET START, but you should not have to do this at all.

    Why do you think you need to cycle the services?
