\nThis will get all services starting with MSexchange that are running and restart them.<\/p>\n$services = Get-Service | ? { $_.name -like \"MSExchange*\" -and $_.Status -eq \"Running\"}\r\nforeach ($service in $services) {Restart-Service $service.name -Force}\r\n\r\n<\/pre>\n
\nAlthough the above script should be enough in most cases, it will not restart any Microsoft Exchange related service that is supposed be running but is not for any reason. Here is another version of the script that would take care of this issue, note that we are looking for all services starting with MSExchange with startup type Automatic and restarting them<\/p>\n$services = get-wmiobject win32_service | ? {$_.name -like \"MSExchange*\" -and $_.StartMode -eq \"Auto\"}\r\nforeach ($service in $services) {Restart-Service $service.name -Force}\r\n\r\n<\/pre>\n
