Managing Microsoft Exchange Services with Windows Powershell in Exchange 2010

We usually need to get the Microsoft Exchange services to disabled one by one in more scenarios like Performance, Setup etc.. .

But its much easier to manage Exchange services in powershell , Saves more time !!

To Get all the MsExchange Services Startup Type to Disabled State

Get-Service | where{$_.Name –Like ‘MSExchange*’} | set-Service –StartupType ‘Disabled’

To Get all the MxExchange Services Startup Type to  Automatic State

Get-Service | where{$_.Name –Like ‘MSExchange*’} | set-Service –StartupType ‘Automatic’

(Starting and Stopping all Service in one Shot differs , scenario to scenario – Please have this Tested in your Lab)

To Stop All the MsExchange Service

Get-Service | where{$_.Name –Like ‘MSExchange*’} | stop-Service –Force

Note ** Am using -Force as MsExchangeADTopology Service as dependancies

To Start All the MsExchange Service

Get-Service | where{$_.Name –Like ‘MSExchange*’} | start-Service

To the Current Status of the Service

Get-Service | where{$_.Name –Like ‘MSExchange*’}

Happy Learning !!
