MS Services stops: Auto Restart Suggestions
-
Service that runs the POS system is set to restart. However, several times since I have been here it has timed out and has to manually restarted.
As Remote Execution of PS is disabled, what other options would there be that doesn't require a human to process?
Task Scheduled Batch?

I would be researching why the service is failing in the first place.

The POS is a...POS? Very good question - problem precedes my arrival. But does warrant additional investigation and time invested with the Vendor.

The correct answer is from @Danp. Some troubleshooting of the service is in order. Otherwise, I suggest doing what I said either in chat or some other thread. Use a scheduled task to run a PowerShell script to restart the service.

True. I know a bit of context for this that wasn't mentioned in the OP. I'm fairly sure "powershell disabled" means "PowerShell remoting is not allowed."
