ServerAutoStart
ServerAutoStart indicates if the server instance should start automatically when the service is started.
This property is reset automatically when a server instance is stopped or restarted, to maintain state across service restarts. For example, if a server is stopped, the value of this property is set to false so that if the service is stopped and restarted, the server will remain stopped. Likewise, if a server is started, this property is set to true, allowing the server to remain running whenever the service is running.
