Answer 1

You could use the ServiceController class like so:

ServiceController sc = new ServiceController("ArcGIS Server", "192.168.36.22");

sc.Start();
sc.Stop();

This saves you having to write all that code to interact with WMI. Note to use the ServiceController class, you'll have to add a reference to the System.ServiceProcess assembly.
