Just about on the edge of this topic:
We run a 24x7 RedHat server and would like
it to *not* drop us to a root shell when the fs
is corrupted due to a power fail, since we're
usually not there to answer the questions.
How?
I've skimmed the fsck manpages and came up
with the following:
fsck -V -p -y $fsckoptions
This will automatically repair errors (-p) and
answer 'Yes' to all questions.
1. Should I leave the -y part out since -p
-p already takes care of that? And questions
like '.... ignore?' should *not* be answered with
'Yes' should they/
2. When fsck gives an exit value >1 the system
needs rebooting. I want the sytem to give me
five seconds to hit enter and run a shell or, when
no keys are hit, reboot the system.
I've been looking at 'expect' and worked out a
small script but since it's not statically linked, am
I safe to use it anyway?
root@wise:/etc/rc.d# ldd /usr/bin/expect
libexpect5.24.so => /usr/lib/libexpect5.24.so
(0x40002000)
libtcl8.0.so => /usr/lib/libtcl8.0.so (0x40022000)
libutil.so.1 => /lib/libutil.so.1 (0x4007f000)
libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x40082000)
libm.so.6 => /lib/libm.so.6 (0x40087000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x400a0000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x00000000)
Or does anyone have an expect.static for me?
Thanks,
