I've got an odd problem. My server will not shutdown normally because the AoE driver is not being shut down properly. While investigating the problem, I found that the aoe script is apparently not being called for shutdown. I have been able to duplicate this with a brand new test script. My test script is just a simple file that echos back the start or stop command: #!/bin/bash # # chkconfig: 45 01 99 # description: Test Start and stop script # echo "Called with $1" I installed it with 'chkconfig --add mytest'. The softlinks exist in the runlevel directories: /etc/rc.d/init.d/mytest /etc/rc.d/rc0.d/K99mytest /etc/rc.d/rc1.d/K99mytest /etc/rc.d/rc2.d/K99mytest /etc/rc.d/rc3.d/K99mytest /etc/rc.d/rc4.d/S01mytest /etc/rc.d/rc5.d/S01mytest /etc/rc.d/rc6.d/K99mytest When I 'telinit 4', I can see the script output in /var/log/messages: Dec 19 11:46:49 bnofdn1 mytest: Called with start Dec 19 11:46:49 bnofdn1 rc: Starting mytest: succeeded When I 'telinit 3', there is no output from this script. It is like the script is not even being called. Am I doing something stupid here? When I do 'telinit 3' from a higher runlevel, isn't it supposed to run all of the 'K*' scripts in rc3.d with a 'stop' argument? Any suggestions would be appreciated. -- Bowie
