Administrator

Most servers are configured so the services are initiated and started when the system boots. This happens in the boot scripts. These boot scripts excute in a logical sequence insuring that the operating environment is setup properly. For example, check local filesystems and the mount them; start networking services; mount networked filesystems; start database services; start network services.

For example, many people on the net use apache with PHP and MySQL. Because they they run applications with Apache/PHP that use MySQL as the database backend (like this site) you would start MySQL before Apache. All of this occurs in the boot resource directory (/etc/rc.d/ on my systems, every major flavor of UNIX has a different way to do this) but the idea is the same.

Sorry, I would like to add more, but have to run to a meeting.

remote-filesystems

remote-filesystems(7)					 Miscellaneous Information Manual				     remote-filesystems(7)

NAME

       remote-filesystems - event signalling that remote filesystems have been mounted

SYNOPSIS

       local-filesystems [ENV]...

DESCRIPTION

       The  remote-filesystems event is generated by the mountall(8) daemon after it has mounted all remote filesystems listed in fstab(5).  moun-
       tall(8) emits this event as an informational signal, services and tasks started or stopped by this event will do so in parallel with  other
       activity.

       This event is typically used by services that must be started to manage remote filesystems.  When it occurs, local filesystems such as /usr
       may not be mounted.  For most normal services the filesystem(7) event is sufficient.

       This event will never occur before the virtual-filesystems(7) event.

EXAMPLE

       A service that wishes to be running once remote filesystems are mounted might use:

	      start on remote-filesystems
