Do you mean I can use '# chkconfig: 345 28 72' directive? It does not work. Am I missing something here?

Yeah - I don't think the openSUSE sysinit supports a straight numbering/priority scheme. (I could be wrong, I've never tried it). I think you'll need to add your script with the correct dependencies, then insert it into the sequence with insserv. /Per -- Per Jessen, Zürich (18.2°C) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

to put that script the end of startup process, but also the end of halt/reboot process. big numbers are at the end, small numbers at the beginning (I think). If you need booting at the very first or very end, no dependency problem

Sorry, it's not my call. I was told to follow the LSB.

Then you have no choice but to read up on the dependencies of the sysvinit scripts.

What would happen if I change it manually, and some time later, customers use insserv to adjust it?

As long as you've added the correct dependencies, it should work fine. /Per -- Per Jessen, Zürich (20.1°C) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Thank you all for your reply. Let me make my question more specific. How can I use *dependency* way to start my script after xdm starts and stop it after xdm and splash-late stop?

Okay, let's have a look: /etc/init.d/xdm - contains "Provides: xdm". This gives you a hint that your script might/will need: "Required-Start: xdm". I don't have a splash_late script on my system, but to run your script late in shutdown, maybe "Required-Stop: $network" will do.

By doing this, I can fix a tedious bug.

According to my test, Required-stop did not work properly. Although it might be my mistake. :(

someone already mentioned that the man-page for insserv says 'Required-Stop' doesn't work or is ignored. I have never had to be careful with when something is shut down, so I probably can't help you much more. /Per -- Per Jessen, Zürich (21.9°C) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

When I read this, alarm bells go off in my head; let me tell you why. Firstly, these two goals are not equivalent. boot occurs once per boot :) xdm can be restarted many times. Of more concern to me is that starting something at the end of bootup and stopping it at the end of shutdown is very unusual, because the environments will be very different at these times. Most processes start up and shut down at the same environment level - they nest with other process lifetimes. So normally it would be an error to do what you want to do. But you may have some special requirement; please accept my apologies if so.

Just as I said before, I am not quite familiar with insserv and those dependency directives. I am still struggling to find a way to indicate the right dependencies to put that script the end of startup process, but also the end of halt/reboot process. IMHO, by default, these two are just reversed.

I think (not 100% positive) it is: # Required-Start: $all Then the script is put last. Look at the insserv man page. This is described just before the options. Probably similar for Stop. If there is a specific script you want to follow, find out what it has for "Provides:", and put that in your "Required-Start:" list. -- Roger Oberholtzer OPQ Systems / Ramböll RST Ramböll Sverige AB Krukmakargatan 21 P.O.

Yes, but if I take this way, the shutdown/reboot process sequence is not satisfied.

According to http://man-wiki.net/index.php/8:insserv, It reads: 'Required-Stop, Should-Stop, and Default-Stop are ignored in SuSE Linux, because the SuSE boot script concept uses a differential link scheme'. Is that true?

Probably. But I think it is effected by the Start sequence. If you add a script with "# Required-Start: $all", (1) does it get put at the end of all run level start scripts, and (2) where is it in the stop sequence? A dummy script that does nothing can't hurt playing with. I am not sure about making links outside the ones insserv does. I seem to recall I did this and my script did not get treated as I wanted. insserv does not look at existing links. It only looks at the directives in the files in /etc/init.d. -- Roger Oberholtzer OPQ Systems / Ramböll RST Ramböll Sverige AB Krukmakargatan 21 P.O.

Okay, then you'll have to add your script manually by creating the S* and K* symlinks by hand.

Nothing default about it, but create an S99 and a K99 link in the appropriate runlevel directory/ies, and I think you'll have your wish granted. /Per -- Per Jessen, Zürich (20.4°C) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
