PDMWorks vault service

PDMWorks vault service

PDMWorks vault service

(OP)
Is it possible to stop (or start) the PDMWorks vault by passing parameters through a command line?  I've tried using sc.exe, but I don't know the ServiceName to stop:

sc stop ServiceName

I want to be able to do this prior to automatically backing the vault up at night.  Any other methods that I could use to stop and start the vault automatically?

Thanks,
Dave Gowans

RE: PDMWorks vault service

We use:

net start "PDMWorks server"
net stop "PDMWorks server"

in batch files, then use Task Scheduler to run those batch files at certain times overnight.

That'll do it - thanks so much.
