But it does force people who should be focusing on improving an application to instead spend their time reconfiguring the startup configuration for a distribution just to keep it working the same way. For example: http://issues.opennms.org/browse/NMS-6137 And, while it might offer a benefit in terms of being able to make it wait for the supporting postgres database if it is local, what happens if it is configured that way but you use the setup recommended for scaling where the database runs on a different system? -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell at gmail.com
