Hi...
What are people doing to automatically start things like WAS, DB2, MQ
etc.? Stuffing it at the end of /etc/inittab? Writing your own
start/stop script for /etc/init.d? What's the "best" place to
stick it?
One of our clients was told "have someone logon and issue..." -- by
someone at IBM (aka: It's Better Manually). Sigh...
I gave a talk on this (it's really David's talk) at WAVV, and you can
get it from the sinenomine.net web site.
The short answer is: yes, write your own init.d script. That
directory will contain plenty of models for how to do it. DON'T put
it in /etc/inittab. And DON'T start it manually--you have automation
of production systems for a reason.
