Any chance if somebody can help me to set alarm on stopping and starting state  windows services  (automatic services) in SCOM for client servers.

Hello,

Try to add a new monitoring Wizard with Service Name "%" without " and check the box "Monitor only automatic services".

1) Using Windows Service Template to create a windows service monitor with enabled "monitor only automatic service" option
2) Export the management pack containing the monitor which created in step 1)
3) Modidy data source from
TypeID="Windows!Microsoft.Windows.Win32ServiceInformationProviderWithClassSnapshotDataMapper">
    <ComputerName>$Target/Property[Type="Windows!Microsoft.Windows.Computer"]/NetworkName$</ComputerName>
    <ServiceName>XXXX</ServiceName>
into
TypeID="Windows!Microsoft.Windows.WmiProviderWithClassSnapshotDataMapper">
    <NameSpace>root\cimv2</NameSpace>
    <Query>select * from win32_service </Query>

AND
<Setting>
          <Name>$MPElement[Name="MicrosoftSystemCenterNTServiceLibrary!Microsoft.SystemCenter.NTService"]/ServiceProcessName$</Name>
          <Value>$Data/Property[@Name='BinaryPathName']$</Value>
        </Setting>

into
 <Setting>
          <Name>$MPElement[Name="MicrosoftSystemCenterNTServiceLibrary!Microsoft.SystemCenter.NTService"]/ServiceProcessName$</Name>
          <Value>$Data/Property[@Name='PathName']$</Value>
        </Setting>
