Hi. I would like to be able to have an equivalent of /etc/local.d/
something to execute those commands which do not fit neatly into the
boot scheme -- for instance I have several things which have something
in init.d and I just have to say /etc/init.d/thing start after
everything is up. There are other miscellaneous commands I need to
issue, so how can I do this using systemd?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
You could write a simple unit file /etc/systemd/system/my-stuff.service:
[Unit]
Description=My Stuff
[Service]
Type=oneshot
ExecStart=/../my-script --start
ExecStop=/../my-script --stop
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
And then enable this service with:
systemctl enable my-stuff.service
Please note you might need to add some dependencies (for example if you
need networking etc.) to make sure everything your script needs is ready
to use.
