How to check a windows server status with () in the service name

[Andy Dennis]

Hello

I have a windows service which is called Lotus Domino Server (DLotusDominodata). I can't seem to monitor this as a service but I can monitor services without () (ie System.ServiceState("Alerter")) .

Is there anyway to get around this ?

Thanks

Andy

Hi!

Are you sure that it's service name and not display name? Also, do you use quotes, like System.ServiceState("Lotus Domino Server (DLotusDominodata)") ?

Best regards,
Victor
