run levels (priority) and chkconfig --add

[Douglas Phillipson]

In order to add a service with chkconfig you need to add the two 
commented lines for run level, priority and description like:


# chkconfig: 35 30 20
# description: Starts and stops ESRI sde service

My question is, and I've read the man page on chkconfig, what are the 
priorities, in this case 30 and 20.

Are they the order in which this service is started relative to all 
services?  Or are they the process priority to be given when the process 
is started or stopped?  I'm leaning toward the "order" relative to all 
services but I just wanted to make sure.  If this is the case than all 
services should have different numbers here???  Is the highest legal 
number 99?
