The following table describes the fields provided on the Recovery page.
| Field | Description |
| First/Second/Subsequent Failure | Defines the action taken in the event of a service failure. Following are the valid options:
|
| Reset Fail Count After | This option determines the number of days after which the failure counter is reset to zero. When the failure counter is reset, the sequence of First/Second/Subsequent Failure actions starts at the beginning again. |
| Restart Service After | This option determines the time (in minutes) after which a failed service restarts. |
| Enable Actions for Stops with Errors | If selected, the First and subsequent failure actions will be triggered if the service stops with an error. |
| Restart Computer Options | This displays the Restart Computer Options dialog box. In the dialog box, set the time (In minutes) to wait before restarting the system. Optionally, a message can also be broadcast to other computers on the network before the restart by checking the checkbox and entering the text of the message.  Note: The feature is only enabled when the Restart the Computer option is selected as a failure action. |
| Run Program The Run Program options are only enabled if one of the failure actions is set to Run a Program. The following options are available: | |
| Program | The full path and name of the program executable to run. |
| Command Line Parameters | The command-line parameters to be passed to the program executable. If any parameter contains whitespace characters, it must be quoted, e.g. "string with spaces" |
| Append Fail Count to End of Command Line | Appends the /fail=%1% parameter to the command line parameters. %1% is a replaceable parameter. In the event of a failure, this parameter is replaced by the value 1 through 3 to represent the value of the failure counter. |
