How to determine that the service has started?

Question

PowerShell

There are several services that must be started after one particular one. You have to wait until it is fully loaded. An attempt to force the service to start in a job was not successful. Maybe someone solved this issue?

Answer 1

how do you determine that the service has fully loaded?
if it changes to running status then:
$service_name = "winrm"
do{
$service_status = (get-service $service_name).status
if ($service_status -ne "running"){
"Service $service_name is not running!"
}
else {
"Service $service_name has started. Exiting..."
}
sleep 1
}
while($service_status -ne "running")
