    I'm not aware of a way to do this out-of-the-box.  You would need to execute some sort of command on the windows machine.  Perhaps a google search will give you a command that you can run via command line to stop/start Windows Services.

    Hi,

     

    There are a few easy ways to do this, you can use the run command to do a simple "net stop servicename" then "net start servicename"

     

    Or for more control/scriptability you can use PowerShell

    Stop-Service -DisplayName 'CA Agent Monitor'

    Start-Service -DisplayName 'CA Agent Monitor'

     

    Both would need to be run by system, or an account with the proper privileges.
