Operating Systems HP-UX Startup scripts Post 302101099 by blowtorch on Wednesday 27th of December 2006 06:26:54 PM

All service startups in unix are handled by /sbin/rc? scripts. Just replace the ? by the runlevel. In this case, since it will be applications and databases that will be starting up, the startup script is /sbin/rc3. The /sbin/rc3 script in turn calls different scripts in the /sbin/rc3.d directory. You can write the startup scripts for the dbase/app and put it in the /sbin/rc3.d directory.

If you are new to the unix world, you might want to read up on how the HP-UX system boots.

volinstall(8)						      System Manager's Manual						     volinstall(8)

NAME
volinstall - Sets up Logical Storage Manager (LSM) environment after LSM installation SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/volinstall DESCRIPTION
The volinstall script sets up LSM special device files, and add the following lines to the /etc/inittab file: lsmr:s:sysinit:/sbin/lsmbstartup -b </dev/console >/dev/console 2>&1 lsm:23:wait:/sbin/lsmbstartup -n </dev/console >/dev/console 2>&1 vol:23:wait:/sbin/volreconfig -n </dev/console >/dev/console 2>&1 The first line calls the /sbin/lsmbstartup script, which enables LSM to start automatically on system reboot. The second line calls the /sbin/volreconfig script, which handles any pending encapsulation requests. If /sbin/lsmbstartup is not added to the /etc/inittab file, LSM must be started manually after system reboot. Note The volinstall script is automatically invoked by the volsetup, clu_create, and clu_add_member commands. Therefore, running the volinstall script to set up LSM is usually not necessary. SEE ALSO
