Stopping and Starting Workbench Services
There are four services used by Ideagen Workbench on the server:
| Service Name | Startup Type |
| Workbench Guardian | Automatic |
| Workbench Licence Manager | Manual |
| Workbench Server | Manual |
| Firebird Server - DefaultInstance | Manual |
The proper order to stop the services is to stop the Workbench Guardian first, this will stop all the other services. Once all services are stopped, start the Workbench Guardian, this will start all the other services. It is not recommended to stop or start the other services individually. Note: Stopping the services will disconnect any users currently accessing the system. Please ensure no users are connected as this can lead to data loss.
