In contrast, anyone who can read and write simple shell scripts has little need for documentation to do things “the sysvinit way”, though documentation is available if you want it. Any working sysvinit system has dozens of self-documenting examples right there in /etc/init.d/ . Corollary: This is why systemd is needed. So many bad habits have been "copied" from other scripts. How many sysv scripts' reload functions consist of "$0 stop; sleep 5; $0 start"? What's that sleep for? A proper init script should not really be returning from "stop" unless the daemon has stopped. But many daemons are writted such that it's difficult to tell - meaning that if you do "$0 stop; $0 start", it's not reliable. Systemd deliberately restricts what can be done in order to encourage better-written init-scripts resulting in a more reliable, more performant system. At least, that's the theory. > >Pointers to any tutorials as mentioned above by Tom, will be greatly appreciated!!! > >Enjoy >Rick -- For more information, please reread.
