Start Service

The Start Service action starts a windows service on the target client.  To use this action, you provide the service name and any arguments that the service expects.  The action will start a stopped or paused service.  If the service is already running the default action is to do nothing.  Alternatively, you can select to force the service to restart.  If the service does not exist on the target, the update will fail.
