Blackberry Enterprise Server 5.0 fails to properly load all services at reboot.

Some of the Blackberry Enterprise Services for BES 5.0 repeatedly fail to start after our weekly scheduled reboot.  Here is a simple batch script to properly shutdown all of the services and reload them in the proper order.


REM Stop BES services in proper order
net stop "BlackBerry MailStore Service"
net stop "BlackBerry MDS Connection Service"
net stop "BlackBerry Dispatcher"
net stop "BlackBerry Attachment Service"
net stop "BlackBerry Controller"
net stop "BlackBerry Router"
net stop "BlackBerry Policy Service"
net stop "BlackBerry Synchronization Service"
net stop "BlackBerry Alert"
REM Restart Services
net start "BlackBerry Router"
net start "BlackBerry Attachment Service"
net start "BlackBerry Dispatcher"
net start "BlackBerry MDS Connection Service"
net start "BlackBerry Alert"
net start "BlackBerry Controller"

After creating the above batch script you can either run it manually as necessary or set it as a scheduled task to run after any periodically scheduled reboots. Also on a side note if you choose to restart the services by hand then be sure and follow the order above.
