The information in this article applies to:

SUMMARY

This article describes how to start SQL Server remotely.

MORE INFORMATION

If the specified server is not running when SAF is started, a prompt appears asking whether or not to start it. Another way is to use the NET ADMIN command as follows:

   NET ADMIN \\server-name /COMMAND net start sqlserver

If share-level security is active, ADMIN$ must be shared. If ADMIN$ was shared with a password, that password must be used in the NET ADMIN command. For more information, see Chapter 13 of the "Microsoft LAN Manager Administrator's Guide."

If user-level security is active, the workstation must be NET LOGged on to an account with ADMIN privilege. For more information, see Chapter 10 of the "Microsoft LAN Manager Administrator's Guide."
