- Desired Status - The status of the service: Running, ShutdownNormal, ShutdownImmediate, or ShutdownAbort.
note
When you create or edit a process server, the required services are added automatically to the process server based on the definition types or the SAP interfaces you configured, so there is no need to change services on a process server. The only exception is for process servers that are used for file events exclusively, there you do not need to specify a definition type, however, the PlatformAgentService has to be added manually.
