unable to start service in remote and local machine with sc command and net command

Question

I am trying to start the services using the below SC command and service is not coming up.

sc start startliq_2090

output:

SERVICE_NAME: startliq_2090  
        TYPE               : 10  WIN32_OWN_PROCESS  
        STATE              : 2  START_PENDING  
                                (NOT_STOPPABLE, NOT_PAUSABLE, IGNORES_SHUTDOWN)

Here the status is 2 START_PENDING.

Then I tried to use the net command as below and it started the services.
net start startliq_2090
However it started with the net command.
Now I need to start the services in the remote machine, I tried with the below but it didn't worked for me.

net \\\"RemoteMachine" start startliq_2090

Even I tried with the giving the addition time using the timeout

timeout /t 60 /nobreak >NUL

but it still didn't worked for me.

You must have admin rights on the remote site, see [this answer](https://stackoverflow.com/a/30787763/6811411) — LotPings, Jun 24 '17 at 13:16
Yes I already hold the admin rights but still the above bat code fails to start the services. — vishal lakkammanavar, Jun 24 '17 at 14:22

Unlike SC.exe utility, the NET.exe one does not accept server parameter:

^^> net start /?
The syntax of this command is:

NET START [service]


^^> sc start
DESCRIPTION:
        Starts a service running.
USAGE:
        sc <server> start [service name] <arg1> <arg2> ...

^^>

Use

SC \\RemoteMachine start startliq_2090

You need to have admin rights on the \\RemoteMachine server, of course.
