I'm making some init scripts to start some system services that require other services to have started in order to start successfully. For instance, one service requires that xenstored
be running before it can start.
If I understand correctly, LSB init scripts have the following directives:
# Required-Start:
# Should-Start:
# Required-Stop:
# Should-Stop:
My question is, would it be sufficient to simply put xenstored
after Required-Start:
and what is the difference between Required
and Should
? Additionally, Does Debian 5 honor these directives?
