Programati​cally stop and start computer process

Is there a way to programatically start and stop computer processes/services using LabVIEW?
Thanks,
Taylor

Which OS? For Windows you can use System Exec to execute DOS commands to start programs. For services use the net start or net stop <servicename> commands.

    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)

  • Windows 8 All-In-One 1210v printer that stops and starts printing process

    My printer has worked well until a few days ago when it suddenly  started to load and begin printing, only to suddenly stop and "rest" then start again and do the same thing. This problem continues. The only thing I did that I thought might be the problem  was to replace the ink cartridges.
    I have checked with the " printer doctor" and tried all suggestions, including removing and replacing the cartridges. But that didn't work nor did the other suggestions there. I found no mention of my particular  problem  anywhere.
    Do I need a new printer?

    I am sorry you are having an issue with your prints starting and stopping.
    1.) How is the printer connected to the PC?
    2.) Following these steps should help

  • How to stop and start only the process of Oracle Application Express?

    I'd like to know how to stop the process of Oracle Application Express on my server installed oracle express package.
    After installed Oracle Express edition, not only oracle database server processes but also Oracle Application Express, such as http server, is started automatically...
    I hope to stop and start Application Express on demand but is this feature enabled?

    Oracle Apex is an API, if that helps you understand / visualize. You do not start Apex process nor stop it.
    When an Apex session starts it starts calling the API.
    You can however start / stop the listener. It may be OHS, ApexListener and the J2EE container running it, OC4J or any other "server" that you are using.
    The built-in EPG is something like an API again, you cannot start / stop it but you can disable/enable it with DBMS_XDB.SETHTTPPORT API.

    - which OS & version are you running into this issue ?
    - By definition, defunct processes (or zombie processes) are processes that have exited prior to it's parent calling a wait() on it to get the return status .
    - couple of things I can think of to narrow down the cause of this issue
    1. disable ASP & php plugins and see if this still causes this issue
    2. try starting the web server with log level to finest and see fi you get any useful information from the server error logs
    hope this helps

  • Apple TV problem- Netflix message not availabale at present etc.  On Itunes playing a movie the sound stops and starts how can the downloading hurry up.  On the computer all OK.

    Netflix keeps posting not available- have restarted it as directed but still a problem.  Itunes movies dont download fast enough and stop and start. On the Imac computer no problem with sound or viewing.

    I would check for interference using istumbler

  • Stop and start databases

    I need to shutdown all my databases (ifs_Data and OEMREP), because computer people are going to run periodically a process to backup them. But I cannot find how to stop and start my oracle databases by commands (I need to create a bat file). I am using Win2000, Oracle 9 and iFS 9.0.1
    Thanks for the suggestions,

    This can be a procedure to shutdown a database:

    shutdown <option>;
    exit

  • How may I automatically stop and start Mail services at a set time please

    Hi folks. I was wondering if anyone could tell me how to automatically stop and start Mail services (or any other services) at a set time please in Leopard Server? Is there a script someone has created which might help?
    Cheers, David ( a realy newbie when it comes to administering OS X server)

    launchd works through a series of XML documents that define tasks to run, either at launch, on a time schedule, in response to network events, etc.
    So you'll need to create two .plists - one to start the mail server and one to stop it. They should be saved in /Library/LaunchDaemons. I'd suggest something like:
    /Library/LaunchDaemons/local.postfix.stop.plist:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple
    .com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
    <plist version="1.0">
    <dict>
      <key>Label</key>
      <string>local.postfix.stop</string>
      <key>ProgramArguments</key>
      <array>
        <string>/usr/sbin/serveradmin</string>
        <string>stop</string>
        <string>mail</string>
      </array>
      <key>StartCalendarInterval</key>
      <dict>
        <key>Hour</key>
        <integer>1</integer>
        <key>Minute</key>
        <integer>00</integer>
      </dict>
    </dict>
    </plist>
    and /Library/LaunchDaemons/local.postfix.start.plist:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple
    .com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
    <plist version="1.0">
    <dict>
      <key>Label</key>
      <string>local.postfix.start</string>
      <key>ProgramArguments</key>
      <array>
        <string>/usr/sbin/serveradmin</string>
        <string>start</string>
        <string>mail</string>
      </array>
      <key>StartCalendarInterval</key>
      <dict>
        <key>Hour</key>
        <integer>4</integer>
        <key>Minute</key>
        <integer>00</integer>
      </dict>
    </dict>
    </plist>
    You'll need to either use launchctl load /Library/LaunchDaemons/local.postfix.stop (or start) to load the tasks, or reboot your server.
    I'm curious, though, as to why you want to do this. Mail is typically one of the services that people want to run 24/7 so they don't miss out on any emails (even though SMTP can tolerate this). Why do you want to shut yours down?

  • APEX 4.2 aligning issue of Stop and Start Grid Layout item

    My APEX application application is in the process of moving from 4.0 to 4.2.  I am experiencing an issue with aligning (left margin justified) of Stop and Start Grid Layout items that have a border around them.  Earlier I had an issue with the border itself not showing up in the 4.2 application.  I was able to resolve that with a workaround by adding inline code in the CSS section of the page: #P23_OFFICE_START_TBL {width:682; border:1px solid #369; margin:5px;}. This created the border which I needed, but there are 2 Stop and Start Grid Layout items that are indented and not aligning with the border of the previous line.  I have tried a number of different things but none of them have worked.  This seems like a very simple issue to fix but I am having a tough time resolving it.
    I tried to put the item in question in a different grid, which corrected the indention but then I lost the border around the item.  It seems that the above CSS code does not work on the new grid.  I also tried to put attributes such as margin-left:5px; float: left; clear: left; float: left, in the CSS code but that did not work, too.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks
    Ajay K

    I deleted and added back the Stop and Start Grid Layout items not aligning properly.  This worked.  Apparently, the 4.0 to 4.2 upgrade did not handle/convert these items properly.  Deleting and adding them back resolved the issue.

  • SSRS Report queries begin running slowly, have to stop and start report server to restore performance

    We have had a production issue crop up twice now where reports begin running slowly seemingly at random.  
    When this happens we can see from running SQL Profiler that the report queries are taking an extremely long time to execute.  The same queries when run directly in management studio run quickly.  
    Initially I suspected parameter sniffing, and tried using OPTION (RECOMPILE) in the reports, as well as clearing out the particular query from the plan cache and running the SQL in SSMS to try and get a better plan etc but no amount of jiggery pokery by
    me could get the queries to run any faster.
    The really weird thing - is that stopping and starting the report server via the reporting services configuration manager instantly cures the problem.  
    I'd really love to know - why this might be?  Is it something to do with the report server closing and re-opening its connections to the database? That's the only sort of thing I can think of...any ideas? Anyone? Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
    LucasF

    Hi LucasF,
    In your scenario, usually we can monitor the execution log in Report Database. If you run below query, you can get the results how long the report takes to render (TimeRendering), how long to process the report(TimeProcessing) and how long to retrieve data
    from Database(TimeData). You can check the starttime and endtime to know the total time for executing a report.
    SELECT TOP1000 *FROM[ReportServer].[dbo].[ExecutionLog2]
    More details information, please reference to similar thread below:
    Steps for troubleshooting a slow SSRS 2014 server
    Troubleshooting Reports: Report Performance
    In SQL Server Reporting Services, a job will be created by SQL Server Agent if any of the following processes is underway:
    query execution on a remote or local database server
    report processing
    report rendering
    To cancel a job that is running on the report server, we can cancel the job directly or reduce the report execution time-out value in the SQL Server Management Studio and then will stop query execution. Please refer to the steps below:
    Open SQL Server Management Studio, and connect to "Reporting Services".
    Under the Report Server node, right-click on the "Jobs" folder and select "Refresh". Then, right-click on "Jobs" again and click "Cancel All Jobs".
    Right-click on the Report Server node and open the "Server Properties" dialog.
    Click the "Execution" option, and set the "Limit report execution to the following number of seconds:" to a much smaller number. After this issue is resolved, this configuration should revert to the previous state.  
    Reference:
    Managing a Running Process
    Setting Time-out Values for Report and Shared Dataset Processing
    In addition, we can also use the KILL Transact-SQL statement to terminate a normal connection by terminating the transactions that are associated with the specified session ID. For the details information, you can refer to:
    KILL (Transact-SQL)
    If you still have any problem, please feel free to ask.

  • Videos stop and start

    I've got a fast computer w/plenty of ram. I can watch videos from all other sources perfectly smooth, including Quicktime HD movie trailers.
    When I try to watch a video in iTunes it slows my computer down so much that besides the videos stopping and starting, my mouse won't even move smoothly.
    It worked fine until a couple of weeks ago.

    Phyllis-
    One reason is that your internet connection is not fast enough to keep up with the video.  You may find that when it gets to the end of the video and has fully downloaded, it will replay without stopping.

  • Video playback stops and starts

    I've never had this problem before but since I wiped my 5th Gen (late 2006) iPod Video and put new content on it the video playback keeps freezing for a second and then continuing. Most of the time the audio keeps going but sometimes they both stop and start again. It's very annoying. I don't see anyone else in this forum complaining about this. Am I the only one?
    Anybody have any suggestions on how to fix this?

              Environment : XI 3.0 SP 20 + HP-UX 11.23 ia64 + Oracle 10.2
    Sometimes it hangs and starts showing "Processing Started" forever on communication channel monitoring .
    There is no error log for this.
    If i stop it and then start it , no use.
    If i copied this to a new one then it works.
    I have found few SAP note like 1078420,1083488 , but my system is already at higher patch level.
    Can you please advise me something as we are facing in production frequently.
    Regards,
    Sandeep

    Hi Sandeep,
    This problem even we too faced in our project and thought of many stupid things finally found that the JDBC adapter is LOCKED.
    Check in the Visual Admin >Cluster> "LOCKING ADAPTER"
    we get a option of Display Locks .Check for an entry with
    NAME : $XIDBAD.JDBC2XI
    reset the locks and restart the CC ,now it works fine.
    Note 1083488 - XI FTP/JDBC sender channel stop polling indefinitely(04/04S)
