Start/Stop/Restart options are desabled on SQL 2012 in SSMS

  • Hi,

    I just realize that Start/Stop/Restart options are desabled on SQL 2012 in SSMS. Is there a way to enabled them?

    Thanks,

    Rem

  • This usually happens when you're not using a Windows login with permissions to start/stop/restart the services. Note that these aren't SQL Server permissions, they're permissions on the Windows server.

  • Thanks for your quick reply.

    But I am able to start/stop/restart the service via the service administrative tools.

  • Start/stop/restart requires membership in the sysadmin or serveradmin fixed server roles.

  • Try starting SSMS by right-clicking and select Run as Administrator.
