Although at the moment I do understand that we are going through a transitional period where although systemd is likely the implemented subystem in most recent OS (12.2 currently), systemv init scripts are still supported. Looking towards the future, I'd still prefer to implement services management (eg start, stop, restart, priority) as much as possible using systemd.
But, am having some difficulty finding a clear description how to manually implement changes.
As often the case when I'm exploring something bleeding edge which may not yet be fully documented by openSUSE, I've started with what is available at the
Arch Wiki That link in turn links to a number of "common services" which might be enabled simply by
Code:
#systemctrl enable servicename
But, my current specific investigation is actually to configure drbd (Distributed Replicated Block Device).
The included man page currently describes the service as setup using systemv init scripts and indeed when I use locate to find all the files associated with drbd that appears to be true. It also looks like drbd an be simply enabled and started using Yast.
But, I find it interesting that although drbd appears to be already configured as an available "service" it cannot be simply enabled using the systemctl command (see above).
Looking for an explanation to further understand if a service would have to be configured differently to enable systemctl support?
TIA,
TSU
