Ignoring Ubuntu Upstart for System V compatibility

Posted: 21 July 2011 | Author: | Filed under: system administration, ubuntu |2 Comments

If you’d like to start an Ubuntu service using the System V-compatible runlevels, use “update-rc.d.” For example:

# update-rc.d ssh defaults
update-rc.d: warning: ssh stop runlevel arguments (0 1 6) do not match LSB Default-Stop values (none)
Adding system startup for /etc/init.d/ssh ...
/etc/rc0.d/K20ssh -> ../init.d/ssh
/etc/rc1.d/K20ssh -> ../init.d/ssh
/etc/rc6.d/K20ssh -> ../init.d/ssh
/etc/rc2.d/S20ssh -> ../init.d/ssh
/etc/rc3.d/S20ssh -> ../init.d/ssh
/etc/rc4.d/S20ssh -> ../init.d/ssh
/etc/rc5.d/S20ssh -> ../init.d/ssh

    Ah, nice! I didn’t know about the “defaults” argument.

    I guess an event-driven system makes some sense for something that’s so end-user focused, right? Upstart is still a bit weird for me.
