How to use the Microsoft Scripting Host (Powershell) to start all of the Exchange Services in one shot

I thought that I would blog on this because this was pretty cool. Before I start the purpose of this blog is to show you that you can manipulate multiple services of the same type. For my test I was debugging a service pack failure which leaves the exchange services status at stopped and the startup type at disabled. For this issue I needed to have all of the services started I set them all to this state on purpose. You will not want to do this to your exchange server unless you are working in the lab under the debugger.

If you ever get to a point where any or all of your Exchange Services or any other services for that matter are disabled and or disabled and stopped you can run the following commands manipulate them.

Since I ran services.msc I was already able to see that all of my Exchange services were stopped and their startup type was set to disabled. This can be a huge pain because before Powershell you would need to either write a script to start all of them and set them to Automatic, or select each one and fix them.

In this case I wanted to show everybody what I was seeing so I will verify this via Powershell. If you run the following command you can get the service's status:

[PS] C:\>Get-Service *Exchange* | ft -Wrap

Status Name DisplayName
Stopped MSExchangeADTopology Microsoft Exchange Active Directory Topology Service
Stopped MSExchangeAntispamUpdate Microsoft Exchange Anti-spam Update
Stopped MSExchangeEdgeSync Microsoft Exchange EdgeSync
Stopped MSExchangeFDS Microsoft Exchange File Distribution
Stopped MSExchangeImap4 Microsoft Exchange IMAP4
Stopped MSExchangeIS Microsoft Exchange Information Store
Stopped MSExchangeMailboxAssistants Microsoft Exchange Mailbox Assistants
Stopped MSExchangeMailSubmission Microsoft Exchange Mail Submission
Stopped MSExchangeMonitoring Microsoft Exchange Monitoring
Stopped MSExchangePop3 Microsoft Exchange POP3
Stopped MSExchangeRepl Microsoft Exchange Replication Service
Stopped MSExchangeSA Microsoft Exchange System Attendant
Stopped MSExchangeSearch Microsoft Exchange Search Indexer
Stopped MSExchangeServiceHost Microsoft Exchange Service Host
Stopped MSExchangeTransport Microsoft Exchange Transport
Stopped MSExchangeTransportLogSearch Microsoft Exchange Transport Log Search
Stopped msftesql-Exchange Microsoft Search (Exchange)

One thing that stinks is that there is no way possible via Powershell to show the services startup type (automatic, disabled, manual, etc) without the use of WMI. You can get the StartMode in PowerShell through a WMI query: Get-WmiObject Win32_Service -filter "Name like '%Exchange%'" | ft -AutoSize Name, StartMode

Now I want to set all of the services start up type in one shot to Automatic. You run the following command with the verbose parameter (-vb) to do so:

[PS] C:\>get-service *exchange* | Set-Service -StartupType Automatic -vb
VERBOSE: Performing operation "Set-Service" on Target "Microsoft Exchange Active Directory Topology Service (MSExchangeADTopology)".
VERBOSE: Performing operation "Set-Service" on Target "Microsoft Exchange Anti-spam Update (MSExchangeAntispamUpdate)".
VERBOSE: Performing operation "Set-Service" on Target "Microsoft Exchange EdgeSync (MSExchangeEdgeSync)".
VERBOSE: Performing operation "Set-Service" on Target "Microsoft Exchange File Distribution (MSExchangeFDS)".
VERBOSE: Performing operation "Set-Service" on Target "Microsoft Exchange IMAP4 (MSExchangeImap4)".
VERBOSE: Performing operation "Set-Service" on Target "Microsoft Exchange Information Store (MSExchangeIS)".
VERBOSE: Performing operation "Set-Service" on Target "Microsoft Exchange Mailbox Assistants (MSExchangeMailboxAssistants)".
VERBOSE: Performing operation "Set-Service" on Target "Microsoft Exchange Mail Submission (MSExchangeMailSubmission)".
VERBOSE: Performing operation "Set-Service" on Target "Microsoft Exchange Monitoring (MSExchangeMonitoring)".
VERBOSE: Performing operation "Set-Service" on Target "Microsoft Exchange POP3 (MSExchangePop3)".
VERBOSE: Performing operation "Set-Service" on Target "Microsoft Exchange Replication Service (MSExchangeRepl)".
VERBOSE: Performing operation "Set-Service" on Target "Microsoft Exchange System Attendant (MSExchangeSA)".
VERBOSE: Performing operation "Set-Service" on Target "Microsoft Exchange Search Indexer (MSExchangeSearch)".
VERBOSE: Performing operation "Set-Service" on Target "Microsoft Exchange Service Host (MSExchangeServiceHost)".
VERBOSE: Performing operation "Set-Service" on Target "Microsoft Exchange Transport (MSExchangeTransport)".
VERBOSE: Performing operation "Set-Service" on Target "Microsoft Exchange Transport Log Search (MSExchangeTransportLogSearch)".
VERBOSE: Performing operation "Set-Service" on Target "Microsoft Search (Exchange) (msftesql-Exchange)".

Once this is done you will need to manually verify the results by running services.msc. Now that I have verified this I want to start them all in one shot. I run the following command again using the verbose parameter (-vb):

[PS] C:\>get-service *exchange* | Start-Service -vb
VERBOSE: Performing operation "Start-Service" on Target "Microsoft Exchange Active Directory Topology Service (MSExchangeADTopology)".
VERBOSE: Performing operation "Start-Service" on Target "Microsoft Exchange Anti-spam Update (MSExchangeAntispamUpdate)".
VERBOSE: Performing operation "Start-Service" on Target "Microsoft Exchange EdgeSync (MSExchangeEdgeSync)".
VERBOSE: Performing operation "Start-Service" on Target "Microsoft Exchange File Distribution (MSExchangeFDS)".
VERBOSE: Performing operation "Start-Service" on Target "Microsoft Exchange IMAP4 (MSExchangeImap4)".
VERBOSE: Performing operation "Start-Service" on Target "Microsoft Exchange Information Store (MSExchangeIS)".
VERBOSE: Performing operation "Start-Service" on Target "Microsoft Exchange Mailbox Assistants (MSExchangeMailboxAssistants)".
VERBOSE: Performing operation "Start-Service" on Target "Microsoft Exchange Mail Submission (MSExchangeMailSubmission)".
VERBOSE: Performing operation "Start-Service" on Target "Microsoft Exchange Monitoring (MSExchangeMonitoring)".
VERBOSE: Performing operation "Start-Service" on Target "Microsoft Exchange Replication Service (MSExchangeRepl)".
VERBOSE: Performing operation "Start-Service" on Target "Microsoft Exchange System Attendant (MSExchangeSA)".
VERBOSE: Performing operation "Start-Service" on Target "Microsoft Exchange Search Indexer (MSExchangeSearch)".
VERBOSE: Performing operation "Start-Service" on Target "Microsoft Exchange Service Host (MSExchangeServiceHost)".
VERBOSE: Performing operation "Start-Service" on Target "Microsoft Exchange Transport Log Search (MSExchangeTransportLogSearch)".
VERBOSE: Performing operation "Start-Service" on Target "Microsoft Search (Exchange) (msftesql-Exchange)".
[PS] C:\>

The last portion is to make sure that the command work properly.

[PS] C:\>Get-Service *Exchange* | ft -Wrap
