[Spacewalk-list] manage service run levels (chkconfig)

[Waldirio Manhães Pinheiro]

Hello Reneau

One easy way that you can do is according another post that I did

https://www.redhat.com/archives/spacewalk-list/2014-October/msg00144.html

Let me know if you have some doubt to implement.

###
#!/bin/bash
if [ -f /var/log/ref_teste ]; then
  echo "Script was defined - $(date)"           | tee -a /var/log/messages
  echo "Removing $0 from /etc/cron.hourly"      | tee -a /var/log/messages
  echo "### rm -rf /etc/cron.hourly/$0"         | tee -a /var/log/messages
else
  echo "TEST ### $(date) ###"                   | tee -a /var/log/messages

   <INSERT YOUR CODE HERE, for example chkconfig xpto on;service xpto start>

  touch /var/log/ref_teste
fi

Take Care
