Setting Windows service startup options

The following options govern startup behavior for SQL Anywhere services. You can set them on the General tab of the Service Properties window.

  • Automatic   If you choose the Automatic setting, the service starts whenever the Windows operating system starts. This setting is appropriate for database servers and other applications running all the time.

  • Manual   If you choose the Manual setting, the service starts only when a user with Administrator permissions starts it. For information about Administrator permissions, see your Windows documentation.

  • Disabled   If you choose the Disabled setting, the service does not start.
