Thanks..
this is good idea.

or you can use

My /etc/rc.local file looks like this..
Code:
[root@localhost test]# cat /etc/rc.local 
#!/bin/sh
#
# This script will be executed *after* all the other init scripts.
# You can put your own initialization stuff in here if you don't
# want to do the full Sys V style init stuff.

touch /var/lock/subsys/local
#ifconfig p33p1 1.1.31.240 netmask 255.255.255.0
#route add default gw 1.1.31.1
sh /usr/share/tomcat/apache-tomcat-6.0.26/bin/startup.sh

May help you..

There is no rc.local by default, in AIX (at least not in 5.3!). If you want to add one, you'll need to let /etc/inittab know about it.

And what if you want to stop the program when the server shuts down?

I prefer the option zxmaus suggested.
