Generally, whenever you leave a process running to service requests, you want to leave the 'sleep' in. EX: nfsd generally stays running because it can be used by multiple services running on the same node (and there is in no way to make multiple separate instances of nfsd bind to separate IP addresses currently). So, sleep for a bit. Leaving the app running has some limitations, particularly if the service comes back to the original host (this was recently discussed on linux-nfs). Whenever you stop the application, you can remove the sleep. EX: Apache is generally shut down for a service relocation. You may remove the 'sleep' because the sockets will be closed and the application will be terminated. -- Lon -- Linux-cluster mailing list Linux-cluster@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-cluster
