Here is my startup script in /etc/init.d, which then needs a link pointing
at it in /etc/rc2.d with a name like S88adsm.  At system startup, init
will execute all Snnblah scripts, passing "start" to them, in "Snn" order.
During shutdown, the scripts are processed in reverse order with "stop"
arguments (actually, shutdown is not quite this way, but this should
suffice for explanation's sake).  With these scripts, you can also
stop/start the server via, as root, "/etc/rc2.d/S88adsm start" and
"/etc/rc2.d/S88adsm stop".  This is the same concept that should be used
in your Solaris clients, except they would run something like
"/usr/sbin/dsmc sched -quiet -pass=password &"  (-pass can be eliminated
by using passwordaccess generate in dsm.sys, and setting the node's
password by interactively running dsmc as root).

                /opt/IBMadsm-s/bin/dsmserv &
        fi
        ;;
'stop')
                echo "Stopping ADSM service."
