Cobol License manager

[ShivKumar_2]

Experts,
I have a question on how to start the COBOL license manager automatically when the system reboots. I have a HP-UX 11.0

I have the following in the .profile

COBDIR=/opt/cobol/cobdir
SHLIB_PATH=/opt/cobol/cobdir/coblib
PATH=$PATH:/opt/cobol/bin
export COBDIR SHLIB_PATH PATH
and the /etc/inittab has the following entry

mflm:2:wait:sh /etc/mflmrcscript /tmp/mftest.out 2>&1

I have another system which has the /etc/inittab entry commented but on reboot the license manager starts. I need to know which files I need to look on the 2nd system so that I can replicate the same here.

Thnks

Check the working system to see if it isn't started via the /sbin/init.d /etc/rc(n).d method.

All startup script is placed in /sbin/init.d and there will be sym link in /sbin/rcX.d to the script (X=run level). Also check out /etc/rc.config.d for any "control file" where startup bit is enabled or disabled.

I have my mflmfrc file in /etc/init.d
