Cum sa controlam modul in care un serviciu windows porneste din cod

Prin intermediul la clasei ServiceController putem sa controlam un serviciu windows. Il putem in orice moment porni sau oprii. Dar daca avem nevoie sa ii schimbam startup type? De exemplu daca vreau sa ii schimb startup type-ul de pe manual pe automat?
Din pacate ServiceController nu ne oferă aceasta funcționalitate. Din cod C# nu am gasit o posibilitatea prin care as putea sa fac acest lucru. In schimb am gasit in registry bine ascunse aceste valori.
Daca deschidem registrii si ne uitam sub Local System in path-ul "SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\" o sa gasim lista cu toate serviciile pe care le avem instalate pe masina. Pentru fiecare serviciu avem:
  • nume
  • descriere
  • tipul
  • startup type-ul
  • path-ul spre serviciu
  • etc
Daca schimbam una din aceste valori, sistemul de operare o sa faca update automat la serviciu. O solutie la probleme noastra este sa facem o metoda care scrie valoarea in registri.
public enum StartupModeType
{
Boot = 0,
System = 1,
Automatic = 2,
Manual = 3,
Disabled = 4
}
Mai sus este lista cu starile pe care le poate avea serviciu. Iar mai jos avem cele doua metode care fac get si set la aceasta valoarea:
public StartupModeType GetStartupMode(string serviceName)
{
RegistryKey registryKey = Registry.LocalMachine.OpenSubKey(""SYSTEM\\CurrentControlSet\\Services\\" + serviceName);
StartupModeType startupMode = (StartupModeType)registryKey.GetValue("Start");
registryKey.Close();
return startupMode;
}
public void SetStartupMode(string serviceName, StartupServiceMode startupServiceMode)
{
RegistryKey registryKey = Registry.LocalMachine.OpenSubKey("SYSTEM\\CurrentControlSet\\Services\\Start",RegistryKeyPermissionCheck.ReadWriteSubTree);
registryKey.SetValue(StartupTyeRegistryKey,(int)startupServiceMode);
registryKey.Close();
}
In functie de necesitati putem sa facem niste extension methods la ServiceController care sa se ocupe de acest lucru. O alta varianta era cream un proces nou si sa apelam "sc [numeServiciu] config".

Windows Docker Containers can make WIN32 API calls, use COM and ASP.NET WebForms

After the last post , I received two interesting questions related to Docker and Windows. People were interested if we do Win32 API calls from a Docker container and if there is support for COM. WIN32 Support To test calls to WIN32 API, let’s try to populate SYSTEM_INFO class. [StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential)] public struct SYSTEM_INFO { public uint dwOemId; public uint dwPageSize; public uint lpMinimumApplicationAddress; public uint lpMaximumApplicationAddress; public uint dwActiveProcessorMask; public uint dwNumberOfProcessors; public uint dwProcessorType; public uint dwAllocationGranularity; public uint dwProcessorLevel; public uint dwProcessorRevision; } ... [DllImport("kernel32")] static extern void GetSystemInfo(ref SYSTEM_INFO pSI); ... SYSTEM_INFO pSI = new SYSTEM_INFO(

Navigating Cloud Strategy after Azure Central US Region Outage

 Looking back, July 19, 2024, was challenging for customers using Microsoft Azure or Windows machines. Two major outages affected customers using CrowdStrike Falcon or Microsoft Azure computation resources in the Central US. These two outages affected many people and put many businesses on pause for a few hours or even days. The overlap of these two issues was a nightmare for travellers. In addition to blue screens in the airport terminals, they could not get additional information from the airport website, airline personnel, or the support line because they were affected by the outage in the Central US region or the CrowdStrike outage.   But what happened in reality? A faulty CrowdStrike update affected Windows computers globally, from airports and healthcare to small businesses, affecting over 8.5m computers. Even if the Falson Sensor software defect was identified and a fix deployed shortly after, the recovery took longer. In parallel with CrowdStrike, Microsoft provided a too
