Re: Single init script for multiple daemons

That makes sense, thanks.

So, I take this would be the approach:

- Create a single policy with multiple domains
-- Create separate domains for each daemon + domain for shared resources
-- Transition between them where needed

If the structure is:
/opt/myapp/bin/daemon1 (daemon1_exec_t)
/opt/myapp/bin/daemon2 (daemon2_exec_t)
/opt/myapp/bin/start_all - (start script for both daemon1 and daemon2)
(myapp_initrc_exec_t) 
/opt/myapp/all_shared_resources (myapp_t)
/etc/init.d/sym_link_to_start_all (sym link to /opt/myapp/bin/start_all)

Can I have:
type myapp_initrc_exec_t;
init_script_file(myapp_initrc_exec_t)

for daemon1: init_daemon_domain(daemon1_t, daemon1_exec_t)
for daemon2: init_daemon_domain(daemon2_t, daemon2_exec_t)
...
