My technique is something like this on OpenSUSE:
in $CATALINA_BASE, I put bin/catalina.sh
It sources the file:
/etc/sysconfig/tomcat
In /etc/sysconfig/tomcat I define:
CATALINA_BASE
CATALINA_HOME
JAVA_OPTS
and a few others.
$CATALINA_BASE/bin/catalina.sh
starts tomcat via JSVC.
in my particular case, auto-startup isn't important, so I just run it by
hand after a reboot. This is pretty much following OpenSUSE's
configuration/methodology. Admittedly, separating out the defines from
the script doesn't get me a great deal other than it makes it easier to
maintain. Also, I'm unlikely to accidentally break the script.
There's no "clean" way to do this. If you were running on Windows, you'd
have two service entries, and the relevant information (CATALINA_BASE,
etc) would be in the registry.
If I liked systemd more, I'd probably try to figure it out, but it can
be kind of tricky.

Apologies in advance for semi-OT sysadmin question.
Tomcat 8.5.24, running on Centos 6. I have built jsvc according to
instructions in distribution. I have two tomcat instances under
different users (sandbox1, sandbox2) that have their own
CATALINA_BASE. I can start these manually from the command line
without a problem.
How do I set up daemon.sh to run on boot for multiple users? Do I need
to (as root), make a copy of daemon.sh under /etc/init.d for each user
(tc_sandbox1, tc_sandbox2) and edit those to set the environment
variables in it (CATALINA_HOME, CATALINA_BASE, JAVA_HOME,
TOMCAT_USER), then use chkconfig to install the scripts?
This seems kind of clunky to set up. Is this the right way to go about
it or am I making it more complicated than it needs to be?
