Specifying Settings for Container Services
- Thomas Farley (Deactivated)
You can view container services that are associated with a container and specify settings for services using the Services tab.
A container must be undocked to add or modify a service password or startup type.
Element | Description |
Service Name | The name of the service. |
Display Name | The Windows display name of the service. |
Description | Describes the service. |
Status | Indicates the status of the service: Disabled, Started, Stopped, Undocked. |
User Name | The name of the account that the service will be registered to run under. If the account is an account for which credentials are required, then an entry for that account will appear on the Credentials tab. LocalSystem does not require credentials but almost all other accounts do. |

Startup Type | Indicates whether the service should be started automatically or manually, or be disabled. |

Undock the container if it is docked.
In the Startup Type field, select one of the following:
Automatic – to specify that the service should start automatically.
