# System startup script for powerd

### BEGIN INIT INFO
# Provides: powerd
# Required-Start: $remote_fs
# X-UnitedLinux-Should-Start:
# Required-Stop: $remote_fs
# Default-Start:  2 3 5
# Default-Stop:  0 1 6
# Description:    Start the powerd daemon
### END INIT INFO

POWERD_BIN=/sbin/powerd
test -x $POWERD || exit 5

POWERD_CONFIG=/etc/powerd.conf
# test for configfile
test -f $POWERD_CONFIG || exit 6

POWERD_PIDFILE=/var/run/powerd.init.pid

# Source SuSE config
. /etc/rc.status

# Shell functions sourced from /etc/rc.status:
#      rc_check         check and set local and overall rc status
#      rc_status        check and set local and overall rc status
#      rc_status -v     ditto but be verbose in local rc status
#      rc_status -v -r  ditto and clear the local rc status
#      rc_failed        set local and overall rc status to failed
#      rc_reset         clear local rc status (overall remains)
#      rc_exit          exit appropriate to overall rc status

# First reset status of this service
rc_reset

# Return values acc. to LSB for all commands but status:
# 0 - success
# 1 - generic or unspecified error
# 2 - invalid or excess argument(s)
# 3 - unimplemented feature (e.g. "reload")
# 4 - insufficient privilege
# 5 - program is not installed
# 6 - program is not configured
# 7 - program is not running
#
# Note that starting an already running service, stopping
# or restarting a not-running service as well as the restart
# with force-reload (in case signalling is not supported) are
# considered a success.
