Switching to Native Upstart Scripts?
I was wondering what the consensus on switching to native Upstart scripts (/etc/event.d/*) vs. keeping the traditional SysV init scripts (/etc/rc.d/init.d) for daemons was? I was looking at switching Asterisk over and have an Upstart script that seems to work fairly well. I would be making the change for F-13... -- Jeff Ollie asterisk Description: Binary data -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list

I was looking at switching Asterisk over and have an Upstart script that seems to work fairly well. I would be making the change for F-13... 1) Likely for F-13 we're moving to upstart 0.6.x. This will likely require changes (if nothing else, to the script location), so you're best holding off until after then. 2) We currently have no mechanism for the following: - not starting services automatically that happen to have jobs installed (i.e., chkconfig service off) - enforcing dependencies between SysV and upstart scripts - if a package that provides a service that a SysV service depends on (via LSB headers) changes to an upstart script, things go wrong.

Also last time I checked, they still have not specified an audit facility. They have one for syslog, but not audit. And yes this matters. -Steve -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list

Upstart has been in the distribution for quite sometime already. If there are particular requirements for Fedora, we should have already communicated that.
