Hello once again managers,
I have searched the archives on this one, but I have not found a definitive
answer.
I have recently installed collect and up until now I have been starting the
data collector manually. I am keen to have this start automatically, and to
this end I have written a script which starts and stops the data collector
cleanly.
Now the problem, I have copied this script to /sbin/init.d and linked it to
/sbin/rc3.d/S99collect. According to the console the script appears to
start, but then when I log in when the system is fully up the collector is
not running. If I run ' /sbin/rc3.d/S99collect start ' everything starts up
fine.
I searched the archives of this list and found references to adding a
'nohup' and a 'sleep' to the script. So I now have in the start part of the
script a :
'start')
echo " Starting Collect "
nohup /usr/bin/collect -f /data/collect/`date +"%d-%b-%H:%M"`
sleep 15
;;
But still this fails.
Am I missing something obvious ??
Regards
Kevin Jones
