MySQL How to change strt-up sequence of services on SLES10/11
Hi All,

I want to change the start-up sequence of services on SLES10/11.

I have my own start-up scripts for some services and I want them to start in a particular order(not in alphabetical order)

Can anyone help me on this issue?

How does the start-up scripts looks like. Perhapes, you can change the sequence yourself.

One approch is (Assuming init level 3),

On /etc/rc3.d directory, scripts will be executed in alphabetical sequence. What you can do is to create links to the actual scripts. The link names can be made in such a way that it can be executed alphabetically.
Example
Code:
/etc/rc3.d
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root     root          19 Sep 24 16:05 S99ascript_link  -> /etc/init.d/script3
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root     root          25 Sep 29 12:11 S99bscript_link  -> /etc/init.d/script1
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root     root          25 Sep 29 12:11 S99cscript_link  -> /etc/init.d/script2

If you write the start up scripts then you can call the script2 from the script1 , and script3 from script 2 ( don't take alphabetical consider as your sequence ) .
I think you can do this easily.

The link names are already fixed and cannot be changed.

I need to change the "S" and "K" values for the scripts.

Can anyone tell me how I can change these values?
