SQL Server Service Check Utility

I was ask to see if Full Text Search was installed on a development server one day. So after some manual work to collect this information I thought that maybe there could be a better way. So I wrote this script to help out.

Here is how this script could help you:

  • Determine the status of SQL server service(s) - running or not
  • Determine if the service is installed or not
I have executed it on the following servers
32 bit and 64 bit
SQL 2005 with SP3 - Stand alone and on multiple instances
SQL 2008 with SP1 and SP2 - Stand alone and on multiple instances
SQL 2008 R2 latest patches
SQL 2012 with latest patches

Hope you find it useful.

Thanks,
Rudy
