| Haven't seen the same thing but I'd suggest trying the digital_unix conference
as well as it could be a startup issue rather than Polycenter CM necessarily.

| Nope, don't think so. Every other tool and product installed starts
properly at boot time.
To get around this I just created a seperate startup file which calls
S99consoled. Works fine so I'm set.

| 1059.3 | you are using CDE ? | 54831::BUGGENHOUT | | Thu Oct 26 1995 04:50 | 7 |
| hi
are you using the CDE interface, i noticed that all the scripts
coming after Snncde are not started, so rename in that case your
S99consoled to S96consoled.

| Hi Regina, no we are not running the "CDE interface"? I'll rename
the startup script and reboot and report back anyway. Since the
system is up and now fully configured with about 50 systems I'm
not sure when that will be.
What is strange is that at boot time the message that pcm is starting
appears but the daemons don't. The script which I added, S99startpcm,
contains only the following and works fine.
#!/sbin/sh
/sbin/rc3.d/S99consoled start

| 1059.5 | rename not needed | 54831::BUGGENHOUT | | Thu Oct 26 1995 11:37 | 7 |
| hoi,
if you are not using CDE (common desktop environment : alternative for
osf/motif) then the rename is not needed. I do not see the problem then
but is too late now i will think about it tomorrow.

| 1059.6 | Same problem | 60600::KINGSMILL | Geoff Kingsmill, Australia | Fri Dec 29 1995 02:46 | 5 |
| I've got the same problem. S99consoled fails on startup. Renaming it to
S59consoled so it starts earlier in the boot process works fine. I'll
investigate this some more next week.

We've seen this behaviour a couple of times already .
The problem is the Alpha systems being too fast 8*)) ...
as soon as the last script from rc3.d has been executed
the init daemon will send a HUP signal to all processes
still 'connected' to the console , if any of the scripts out
of rc3.d have not yet forked all of their processes these processes
will be killed ...
The best solution to this problem would be to put either a sleep(1)
right after the last command in your script(s) or to nohup(1) the
console manager daemon/command , adding a line like "sleep 4"
normally fixes these problems .
Hth,
