Hello,

The Sun Solaris has the following start/halt procedure:

You put your base script in /etc/init.d/, and you have to link it to
/etc/rc2.d/<file name begins with S> and to /etc/rc0.d/<file name begins
with K>.

When the solaris is comming up, it looks for files in the /etc/rc2.d
directory that begins with the letter S, and execute them with the
parameter "start". When it is being halted, it is looking for files in
the /etc/rc0.d that starts with K and execute them with the parameter
"stop".

I don't know of a way to automaticly restart sessions with the Solaris
system.


The script I use is:
-------------------
case "$1" in
case "$1" in
'start')
        if [ -f /usr/bin/dsmc ]
        then
                /usr/bin/dsmc sched  >/dev/null 2>&1 &
                /usr/bin/dsmc sched -machine=sun5m -password=sun5m
>/dev/null 2>
&1 &
        fi
        ;;
'stop')
        PID=`/usr/bin/ps -e -u 0|/usr/bin/fgrep dsmc |/usr/bin/awk
'{print $1}'`

        if [ ! -z "$PID" ] ;  then
                /usr/bin/kill ${PID} 1>/dev/null 2>&1
        fi
        ;;
*)
        echo "Usage: /etc/init.d/adsmsched { start | stop }"
        ;;
esac
exit 0
