I’ve been investigating a client site in which the Microsoft Exchange System Attendant service will not always start up reliably after a reboot. This is quite a pain as if it’s not running, it will cause havoc with the users Exchange configuration. What I decided to do was to change the service startup type from Automatic to Automatic (Delayed Start). Services start up and shut down based on the alphabetical list that they are in when you look at the Services console. If a service is set to Automatic, it will start automatically when the service manager gets to it. Certainly there are dependencies on some services which means that it will force start other services, but there can be problems with it at times.
Changing a service to Automatic (Delayed Start) will cause the service to NOT startup in the normal alphabetical order that they start up in. It will wait until 2 minutes AFTER the OS is booted and then start these services. By default some services such as Windows Update are configured like this already and they do this to improve the speed in which the server starts up.
Ok – so for the client experiencing these issues, I’ve reconfigured the Microsoft Exchange System Attendant service to be Automatic (Delayed Start) and so far it’s worked 100% of the time.

Delayed start is really useful!
I use it quite a lot with the HP Notification service which falls over if it comes up before the SMTP server comes up 🙂
Wayne Small says
Yup – it’s a hidden gem – hence why I thought I’d do a blog post about it so others knew about it as well 🙂

This feature is particularly useful where a program needs to stay but boot a bit late to allow for a quick startup and functioning

Hello Web Admin, I noticed that your On-Page SEO is is missing a few factors, for one you do not use all three H tags in your post, also I notice that you are not using bold or italics properly in your SEO optimization. On-Page SEO means more now than ever since the new Google update: Panda. No longer are backlinks and simply pinging or sending out a RSS feed the key to getting Google PageRank or Alexa Rankings, You now NEED On-Page SEO. So what is good On-Page SEO?First your keyword must appear in the title.Then it must appear in the URL.You have to optimize your keyword and make sure that it has a nice keyword density of 3-5% in your article with relevant LSI (Latent Semantic Indexing). Then you should spread all H1,H2,H3 tags in your article.Your Keyword should appear in your first paragraph and in the last sentence of the page. You should have relevant usage of Bold and italics of your keyword.There should be one internal link to a page on your blog and you should have one image with an alt tag that has your keyword….wait there’s even more Now what if i told you there was a simple WordPress plugin that does all the On-Page SEO, and automatically for you? That’s right AUTOMATICALLY, just watch this 4minute video for more information at. Seo Plugin

Asking questions are actually nice thing if you are not understanding something totally,
