Also I do not know any other interactive init script.
Numerous ones, like filesystem encryption where you need to enter a
password.

Human action usually is not HA (high available).


The
interactivity is really bad, causing more trouble than benefit.
Imagine an installation with removed init script, where it is
reactivated by an upgrade.

Stuff like that is always messy, no matter from which angle you look at it. There usually are ways to permanently disable init scripts, though.

You mean the suggested

     # update-rc.d drbd disable

on a Debian system?

I am not sure how the

    update-rc.d drbd defaults

in the Debian package of drbd respects the admins 'disable' in case of an package upgrade (i.e. apt-get upgrade).

According to Debian policy changes in the configuration of init scripts should be kept. But the policy is written a little bit fuzzy there.

I will test in the next weeks what exactly happens.
