Computer Start a service manager process automatically on startup
Hello,

I am in the process of learning Linux OS.

How do I run the below lines of code automatically as root on server startup.


cd /opt/program_folder/ServiceManager/bin
nohup ./servce_manager DEV &


Currently, as soon as the server is up and running I log in as root (as this program needs to be run as root) and run the above lines of code.

How do I set up this code in rc.d to run automatically?
When the server goes down I do not worry as it does not need to be shutdown gracefully. The only way right now is to kill the process, if there is a need to shutdown the service_manager.

Please help me out.

Thanks,
Ram.

ctrlaltdel

CTRLALTDEL(8)						       System Administration						     CTRLALTDEL(8)

NAME

       ctrlaltdel - set the function of the Ctrl-Alt-Del combination

SYNOPSIS

       ctrlaltdel hard|soft

DESCRIPTION

       Based  on examination of the linux/kernel/sys.c code, it is clear that there are two supported functions that the Ctrl-Alt-Del sequence can
       perform: a hard reset, which immediately reboots the computer without calling sync(2) and without any other preparation; and a soft  reset,
       which sends the SIGINT (interrupt) signal to the init process (this is always the process with PID 1).  If this option is used, the init(8)
       program must support this feature.  Since there are now several init(8) programs in the Linux community, please consult	the  documentation
       for the version that you are currently using.

       ctrlaltdel is usually used in the /etc/rc.local file.

OPTIONS

       -V, --version
	      Output version information and exit.

       -h, --help
	      Display help and exit.

FILES

       /etc/rc.local

SEE ALSO

       init(8)

AUTHOR

       Peter Orbaek <poe@daimi.aau.dk>

AVAILABILITY

       The  ctrlaltdel	command is part of the util-linux package and is available from Linux Kernel Archive <ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils
       /util-linux/>.
