Sybase DC35823-01-1500-04 manual Returns, If your script is named sybstart, type the following

CHAPTER 2 Starting and Stopping Servers

ln /etc/init.d/script_name /etc/rc#.d/S##script_name

For Linux:

Use ln -sto create symbolic links from the script name to the appropriate run control (rc) directory, rc# where # is the run level. Use syntax like the following:

ln -s /etc/init.d/script_name /etc/rc#.d/S##script_name

When you type the command to create this link, add an uppercase “S” and a two-digit sequence number preceding the name of the script file. “S” indicates a start-up file. The sequence number is necessary because files in the rc directory are executed in order of their numbers. This file should be executed last, so you should use a sequence number that follows all existing numbers in ASCII order.

You can perform an ls command on the rc directory to view existing sequence numbers. For example:

ls /etc/rc3.d/S*

returns:

/etc/rc3.d/S10syslog

/etc/rc3.d/S15nfs.server

/etc/rc3.d/S21rfs

If your script is named sybstart, type the following:

ln /etc/init.d/sybstart /etc/rc3.d/S77sybstart

In this example, you can use any number greater than 27 in place of 77.

For Linux:

You can perform an ls command on the rc directory to view existing sequence numbers. For example:

ls /etc rc5.d/S*

returns:

/etc/rc5.d/S12syslog

/etc/rc5.d/S14nfslock

/etc/rc5.d/S27ypbind

and so on. If your script is named sybstart, type the following:

ln -s /etc/init.d/sybstart /etc/rc5.d/S99sybstart

In this example, you can use any number greater than 27 in place of 99.
