SQL Services restarted?

  • In a cluster, if we reboot one node, is the SQL Server sercives restarted?

    I guess not, any other opinion?

    Many thanks in advance.

  • If it's the active node you're rebooting, yes.

    Even if is clustered or not if you restart the server the services should be dependent on service property

    "Manual/Automatic" start service on restart.

    Run---> Services-->Select Service--Double cliick...

    I cannot get your point.

    If it's the active node you're rebooting, yes.

    If so, any running job will be killed?

    Couldn't agree with you more about @SQLFRNDZ's comment, and why would you want to [start\stop] SQL services within a cluster using windows services?

    From what I understand if you do([start\stop] services not within cluster) it like this your cluster isn't going to function properly.

    What you don't know won't hurt you but what you know will make you plan to know better

    This isn't about manually stopping a service. The question was, if a node of the cluster is rebooted, will the SQL service stop and restart as a result of that reboot.

    All connections will be dropped, all open transactions roll back. Once the SQL service on the active node as stopped, the cluster admin will start it up on the other node. Jobs will have to be restarted and applications will have to reconnect.
