Why is the netconsole shutdown script ran so early?
Issue
- We're interested to know the rationale behind making netconsole startup/shutdown script use priority 50/50:
# netconsole This loads the netconsole module with the configured parameters.
#
# chkconfig: - 50 50
# description: Initializes network console logging
# config: /etc/sysconfig/netconsole
-
It doesn't seem to have any hard dependencies (apart from network being brought up of course), so it seems a bit odd to start it that late and stop it that early in the boot/shutdown process.
-
Why isn't this closer to /etc/init.d/network priorities (10/90)?
