I want to restart SQL server 2012 from visual studio 2012. According to MSDN I define a class and implemented this code on it. But it doesn't work. In fact, the program entrap on loop.

Microsoft.SqlServer.ConnectionInfo.dll
Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo.dll
Microsoft.SqlServer.SqlEnum.dll
Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo.WmiEnum
Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Sdk.Sfc.dll

    public static class SQLServer
    {
        public static void Restart()
        {
            ManagedComputer mc = new ManagedComputer();
            Service svc = new Service();
            svc = mc.Services["MSSQLSERVER"];
            if (svc.ServiceState== ServiceState.Running)
            {
                svc.Stop();
            }

            while (svc.ServiceState== ServiceState.Running )
            {
                svc.Refresh();
            }

            svc.Start();
        }
    }

Use the following Method for handling Services in C#

C#

using System.ServiceProcess;

public static class SQLServer
{
    public static void Restart()
    {
        string strSVCName = "MSSQLSERVER";

        ServiceController mySC = new ServiceController(strSVCName);

        if (mySC.Status == System.ServiceProcess.ServiceControllerStatus.Stopped)
        {
            mySC.Refresh();
        }
        else if (mySC.Status == System.ServiceProcess.ServiceControllerStatus.Running)
        {
            mySC.Refresh();
        }
        mySC.Start();
    }
}

Hope this helps you.
