Restart Exchange 2003 script
If you need an easy way to restart Exchange 2003 services, copy and paste the following two scripts into text files and name them Exchange-stop.cmd and Exchange-start.cmd (alternatively combine them into one and call it Exchange-restart.cmd). Then run them to stop and start Exchange.
net stop “Microsoft Exchange Information Store” /y
net stop “Microsoft Exchange System Attendant” /y
net stop “Microsoft Exchange IMAP4″ /y
net stop “Microsoft Exchange Routing Engine” /y
net stop “Microsoft Exchange POP3″ /y
net stop “Microsoft Exchange Management” /y
net start “Microsoft Exchange Information Store”
net start “Microsoft Exchange System Attendant”
net start “Microsoft Exchange MTA Stacks”
net start “Microsoft Exchange IMAP4″
net start “Microsoft Exchange Routing Engine”
net start “Microsoft Exchange POP3″
net start “Microsoft Exchange Management”
Another quick little tip for you, if you’ve got Exchange installed on your Domain Controller with Active Directory, remember to stop Exchange before you shutdown (or add the script to the shutdown procedure) and it will increase the machines shutdown time immensely.
