Best practice for re-starting machine runnind sql server

  • Hi

    If I have run some windows updates on my server and it is prompting me to re-start

    Can I just go ahead and do that or should I stop sql in configiration manager

    What is recommended and why?

    Thanks in advance

  • SQL Server will respond to the shutdown message from Windows. I wouldn't pull the power plug, but I've restarted thousands of instances with Windows | restart with no issues.

  • Thanks
