It might be a good tool but settings can be more easily modified. It would help Of course if I got correct answer from rh support which I didn't. Also while It is great to have tools that help to maintain the system it is not bad to Understand how it really works. -----Original Message----- From: redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Jurvis LaSalle Sent: Friday, March 26, 2004 2:52 PM To: General Red Hat Linux discussion list Subject: Re: Changing run levels -init.d On Mar 26, 2004, at 5:29 PM, Percent, Lonnie M. wrote: > > Ђ > That’s great to know and I appreciate your answer. > Ђ > > Ђ > I DO NOT want the db startup and shutdown to be managed in ckhconfig. > Ђ > > Ђ > What I want to know at what runlevels the start and kill scripts are > executed > Ђ > I have read thru the rc script in /etc/rc.d and the RH doc for 7.2. > Ђ > If I am at runlevel 3 and going to runlevel 5 > Ђ > It looks at the K scripts in runlevel 5 executes them and then looks > at the S > Ђ > Scripts in runlevel 5 and executes them - > Ђ > > Ђ > It doesn’t execute anything in runlevel 3. > Ђ > > Ђ > I believe this is different from Sys V behavior correct me if I am > wrong. > Ђ > > Ђ > I am just trying to verify so I can put my S and K scripts in the > correct dirs. > Ђ > > Ђ > -----Original Message----- > Ђ > From: redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx > [mailto:redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Jurvis LaSalle > Ђ > Sent: Thursday, March 25, 2004 4:35 PM > Ђ > To: General Red Hat Linux discussion list > Ђ > Subject: Re: Changing run levels -init.d > Ђ > > Ђ chkconfig does NOT lock you into using it to manage the startup of your scripts. It's a tool that was created so you don't have to make all those symlinks in the /etc/rc?.d/ directories. It does it for you! Seeing as you can't figure out where to put the symlinks yourself (after a day of manpaging it), why don't you give up and let the utility do it for you? Do others on the list also use chkconfig? Am I alone in finding a great tool to simplify a tedious job? Or am I simply wrong, that chkconfig is NOT the best tool for his problem. I'd like to have a final put up or shut up on this thread- please mod me up or throw me down- I'm just here to learn best practices. hth, Jurvis LaSalle ps what is up with the strange formatting of your emails Lonnie? what character set are you using and why are you using it when posting to the list? -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
