Any reason for "Management Reporter 2012 Process Service" and "Microsoft Dynamics 365 Unified Operations: Batch Management Service" to be set to disabled on a new environment

I created a new Cloud Hosted Dev machine the other day.

I was having trouble with it and found that these two essential services:

"Management Reporter 2012 Process Service" and

"Microsoft Dynamics 365 Unified Operations: Batch Management Service"

were set to disabled on a new environment.

That is not a setting I made.

Any reason they would be set like this?

    Hi Jim,

    I haven't recently deployed a new VM myself. Did you deploy a cloud hosted environment or a local VHD? What is the exact version?

    I can think of a performance related reason for developers. By having these services disabled, there are more resources free for the developer. Anyway, if you need them, you can enable these services.

    Hello Andre,

    It is a cloud hosted dev environment.

    10.0.31 with a DEVTEST topology for Finance and Operations.

    What's more... I remove them from being disabled.. and they go back to being disabled when I next login to the machine after an unsucessful deployment package application.

    HI Jim,

    During a deployment, the services will be stopped. I was not aware if this would be in a disabled state. I never checked that. You might be right that it is caused by a failed deployment of a package.

    Thanks André,

    I wonder if some registry setting or group policy is set on the machine to force those into a disabled state.

    Do you or anyone else reading this know of that?

    Hi Jim,

    Out of the box there is no policy or registry setting which disables it. I think it might be indeed related to a failed deployment. Next time when performing an update, I will try to let it fail and check the state of these services.
