why there are no sql server services listed in configuration manager

  • In installed another named instance of same edition and version sql server 2008 r2 on a server.

    Now i can t see any services related sqlserver.

    and also the instance status button is white in color. I know it shows green when the server is running and red when the server is stopped..

    Any inputs please ?

  • If you go into Windows Services (Control Panel | Administrative Tools | Services), what do you see under SQL Server? there should be a SQL Server service for each instance you have running.

  • It will show in white color when your service getting started.wait for some time. if still it is showing in white color right click on instance and restart the instance

  • I can see SQL Server instances in "SERVICES" but not in configuration manager.

    I tried reatrting the instance, the status is still white in color.

    Thanks everyone for looking into this
