note: put this in a command file (restart_ev.cmd) on your EV servers desktop:

net stop /Y "Enterprise Vault Shopping Service"
net stop /Y "Enterprise Vault Indexing Service"
net stop /Y "Enterprise Vault Task Controller Service"
net stop /Y "Enterprise Vault Storage Service"
net stop /Y "Enterprise Vault Directory Service"
net stop /Y "Enterprise Vault Admin Service"
net stop /Y "World Wide Web Publishing Service"
net stop /Y "HTTP SSL"
net stop /Y "IIS Admin Service"
net stop /Y "Message Queuing"
net stop /Y "Microsoft Exchange Management"

net start /Y "Message Queuing"
net start /Y "Microsoft Exchange Management"
net start /Y "Enterprise Vault Admin Service"
net start /Y "Enterprise Vault Directory Service"
net start /Y "Enterprise Vault Storage Service"
net start /Y "Enterprise Vault Indexing Service"
net start /Y "Enterprise Vault Shopping Service"
net start /Y "Enterprise Vault Task Controller Service"

net start /Y "IIS Admin Service"
net start /Y "World Wide Web Publishing Service"
net start /Y "HTTP SSL"
 

net stop /Y "Enterprise Vault Admin Service" also stops following services. 

 "Enterprise Vault Shopping Service"
 "Enterprise Vault Indexing Service"
 "Enterprise Vault Task Controller Service"
 "Enterprise Vault Storage Service"
 "Enterprise Vault Directory Service"

it is a batch file.

@kesavan - correct, but the Admin Service does not start them up again. So this wont help with stop and start

This is all mentioned in the Admin Guides for EV2007 and earlier within the "Enterprise Vault backup procedures" section.

With EV8 we don't need to cycle the services as before now that we can utilise Powershell scripts to place the vault store / index into backup mode.
