--I upgraded from RPM and I noticed that the /etc/rc.d/init.d script
was
--changed from mysqld to mysql.  It also appears as if the 'status'
option
--that you can pass into service was removed.
--
--I'm just curious why the owners would do that?

Maybe because your actually not starting the mysqld daemon, your
starting a wrapper script.

--What is the rationale to changing a script name and removing
--funtionality?

No functionality has been removed. What are you noticing?

The old mysql service script was called mysqld , the new one is called
mysql.

You used to be able to say 'service mysqld status' and get an OK if
running.  Now support for status was removed, and its just start, stop,
and restart.

BTW, This is on redhat.
