Checking K2 Media Server services
The following table specifies the startup type of services for the different K2 Media Server roles. Depending on a K2 Media Server's roles, some services have different startup types. Unless otherwise noted, services with startup type Automatic are started, while services with startup type Manual or Disabled are not started. You can use this table to check services if you suspect that they have been tampered with or for any reason are not set correctly.
To reset services, reconfigure the server with the K2Config application, starting at the beginning of the configuration wizard. Do not manually change the way services run on a configured K2 Media Server.
