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".

Why Database Modernization Matters for AI

  When companies transition to the cloud, they typically begin with applications and virtual machines, which is often the easier part of the process. The actual complexity arises later when databases are moved. To save time and effort, cloud adoption is more of a cloud migration in an IaaS manner, fulfilling current, but not future needs. Even organisations that are already in the cloud find that their databases, although “migrated,” are not genuinely modernised. This disparity becomes particularly evident when they begin to explore AI technologies. Understanding Modernisation Beyond Migration Database modernisation is distinct from merely relocating an outdated database to Azure. It's about making your data layer ready for future needs, like automation, real-time analytics, and AI capabilities. AI needs high throughput, which can be achieved using native DB cloud capabilities. When your database runs in a traditional setup (even hosted in the cloud), in that case, you will enc...

Cloud Myths: Migrating to the cloud is quick and easy (Pill 2 of 5 / Cloud Pills)

The idea that migration to the cloud is simple, straightforward and rapid is a wrong assumption. It’s a common misconception of business stakeholders that generates delays, budget overruns and technical dept. A migration requires laborious planning, technical expertise and a rigorous process.  Migrations, especially cloud migrations, are not one-size-fits-all journeys. One of the most critical steps is under evaluation, under budget and under consideration. The evaluation phase, where existing infrastructure, applications, database, network and the end-to-end estate are evaluated and mapped to a cloud strategy, is crucial to ensure the success of cloud migration. Additional factors such as security, compliance, and system dependencies increase the complexity of cloud migration.  A misconception regarding lift-and-shits is that they are fast and cheap. Moving applications to the cloud without changes does not provide the capability to optimise costs and performance, leading to ...

Cloud Myths: Cloud is Cheaper (Pill 1 of 5 / Cloud Pills)

Cloud Myths: Cloud is Cheaper (Pill 1 of 5 / Cloud Pills) The idea that moving to the cloud reduces the costs is a common misconception. The cloud infrastructure provides flexibility, scalability, and better CAPEX, but it does not guarantee lower costs without proper optimisation and management of the cloud services and infrastructure. Idle and unused resources, overprovisioning, oversize databases, and unnecessary data transfer can increase running costs. The regional pricing mode, multi-cloud complexity, and cost variety add extra complexity to the cost function. Cloud adoption without a cost governance strategy can result in unexpected expenses. Improper usage, combined with a pay-as-you-go model, can result in a nightmare for business stakeholders who cannot track and manage the monthly costs. Cloud-native services such as AI services, managed databases, and analytics platforms are powerful, provide out-of-the-shelve capabilities, and increase business agility and innovation. H...
