How to create a batch file to stop/start only essbase services 11.1.2.2

Question

Hi,
I have a requirement to build a batch file to schedule stop or start essbase. This batch files should run daily once. Version 11.1.2.2.
I have tried to prepare a batch file which is calling the default service restart batch StartEssbase.bat and stopEssbase.bat.
Stop process is running fine. But, Start is not success. When I run StartEssbase.bat and stopEssbase.bat manually essbase is restarting successfully.
I tried with the command like START ESSCMD.exe "Password" also. Still it is not working.
Could any one please help with the batch scrpit how can I build to start or stop essbase.
Thanks

Hi,
You can use these...
Start essbase-------------------------------
REM ----------EssbaseAgent Start----------
net start HyS9ESBAgent11.1.1_hypservice_1
SET CHK46=%ERRORLEVEL%
IF "%CHK46%" NEQ "0" (
     ECHO "ERROR IN STARTING THE ESSBASE SERVICE"
     EXIT /B 46
) ELSE (
     ECHO "STARTING ESSBASE SERVICE WAS SUCCESSFUL"
     EXIT /B 0
PAUSE
Stop essbase----------------------------------------
REM ----------Stopping of ESSBASE Service----------
SET ESB_BIN_DIR=E:\Hyperion\products\Essbase\EssbaseServer\bin
SET SRCDIR=F:\Essbase\bin
SET MSHSRC=%SRCDIR%\ShutdownServer.msh
SET SERVERNAME=XXXXXXXX
SET USERNAME=XXXXXX
SET PASSWORD=XXXXX
REM *****************CALLING ESSBASE ENVIRONMENT SCRIPT***********************
CALL %ESB_BIN_DIR%\setEssbaseEnv.cmd
CALL %ESB_BIN_DIR%\ESSMSH %MSHSRC% %USERNAME% %PASSWORD% %SERVERNAME%
SET CHK10=%ERRORLEVEL%
IF "%CHK10%" NEQ "0" (
     ECHO ------------------------------------------------------
     ECHO [%DATE% %TIME%] ERROR IN STOPPING THE ESSBASE SERVICE
     ECHO ------------------------------------------------------
     EXIT /B 10
) ELSE (
     ECHO ------------------------------------------------------
     ECHO [%DATE% %TIME%] STOPPING ESSBASE SERVICE WAS SUCCESSFUL
     ECHO ------------------------------------------------------
     EXIT /B 0
The maxl is like
login $1 $2 on $3;
alter system shutdown;
exit;
