Thanks, Mladen. I'm not so sure about it being a relic.
init 6 doesn't appear to do anything unless the lock file is
there. Although of course checkconfig will start/stop Oracle,
init 6 still needs an indication of what to call for a stop/start
system reset. The lock file appears to be what tells it which
subsystems are running and how to call them, this sort of syntax:
</var/log/subsys/oracle> {start|stop}.
Interesting that Red Hat seems to be the only one using this.
Is checkconfig a specific Red Hat feature?
