I've been asked to come up with a script that will allow others (on our general networking team) to gracefully shut down one of our Exchange servers. I'm figuring that a straightforward series of NET STOP commands should take care of it, but am concerned about the time it'll take to shut down the IS (for instance, if net stop times out and gives up before a large IS finishes shutting down). Do any of you all have any pointers or caveats? Is there any way in a simple batch script to check to see if a service has finished shutting down?
Thanks, Aaron _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Web Interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/cgi-bin/lyris.pl?enter=exchange&text_mode=&lang=english To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
