SDP-517 | Please use svcinst to start and stop the Perforce Service. On Windows our svc...inst tool is the only tool which will wait as long as it takes to start or stop the Perforce Windows Service. svcinst continually polls the Service Control Manager for the status of our service until SCM reports that the service is shut down. All other Service management tools can timeout waiting for the SCM to return the response from service. If they do timeout, and control is returned to the caller prematurely, SDP might proceed with significant maintenance work such as swapping database files. This introduces a significant possibility for data inconsistency or corruption. We can avoid this by using the svcinst tool. The svcinst tool is in the Helix Server installer and is installed next to p4d.exe. « | |
