  • Monitoring Software or you would need to get something created through a batch file to attach to that job that stops and restarts the service. Preference is monitoring software.

  • For starting you could always create a SQL startup proc that sends an email (or a SQL Agent job that does the same when the Agent starts).

    Otherwise you're going to be looking at remote monitoring of the processes.

  • For stopping on failures, the OS may have a mechanism for sending an email on service stop. Depends on your version.

    For manual stops, I'm not sure there is anything other than monitoring software.
