Restarting NAS without restarting the NAV instance

Djou2424

Hi everyone,

On Nav 2013 R2, is there a way to restart the NAS service without having to restart the NAV instance?
We have multiple job queues (between 4 and 6) in multiple companies (about 50 companies).
They are all scheduled to run at different time over night.

However, our client would like the possibility to launch it manually when needed, without having to go push the start button on each one in each company.
Is there an easy way to do that?

Thanks

This is one of the main reasons that it is recommended to run NAS with its own dedicated NAV service instance. That being the ability to restart that service as needed.

And how can we do that? Create a new instance to the same database with a different name?

Yes. and enable the NAS but not the client services.
