HI Arun:

Hi:

You need to acquaint yourself with the 'rc' (run control) scripts.

I _urge_ you to take the time to begin by reading:

http://docs.hp.com/en/934/startup.pdf

This whitepaper is _still_ valid and is summarized in the 'rc(1M)' manpages too:

http://docs.hp.com/en/B2355-60130/rc.1M.html

Be sure to copy and use '/sbin/init.d/template' as the model for your start/stop needs.

Regards!

Hi (again):

> but can you tell me now how can we add these scripts, i have to add it to /sbin/init.d adn have linked to /sbin/rc''

Do you mean how you create the symbolic links? Then, something like:

# ln -s /sbin/init.d/s7p /sbin/rc3.d/S900s7p
# ln -s /sbin/init.d/s7p /sbin/rc2.d/K100s7p

You really need to read the startup document mentioned above. The directory /sbin/init.d is a collection of all start/stop scripts. To get them to run in the right order, you create symbolic links in the special rc directories. But you can also leave the start/stop script in the control_m directory. The symbolic links are run in alphabetical order and must start with "S" typically followed by a 3 digit number and then the name of your start script. The purpose of the S123 prefix is to set the order of startup. The same is true with "K" symbolic links for proper shutdown.
