Your startup script needs to require NETWORKING, though, and any other
service it may need.

Beyond this, you can use the rcorder command.

Well, if I understand what you mean, then yes, our app requires
networking. But it has two logic paths: If it sees the system has an IP
assigned it goes into one mode and if it does not have an IP assigned it
goes into another mode. In the case we've encountered the app takes the
"no IP assigned" path, even though we have an IP defined in rc.conf.
We're trying to understand how this could happen and are wondering how
the options in rc.conf are processed.

Does your application startup script require NETWORKING?

Just a shot in the dark from a newbie.

We have an rc.conf file that looks something like this:



ifconfig_nfe0="UP"

ifconfig_nfe1="UP"

cloned_interfaces="lagg0"

ifconfig_lagg0="laggproto failover laggport nfe0 laggport nfe1 <ip>
netmask <mask>"

defaultrouter=<router-ip>

...

ourapp_enable="YES"



In a recent reboot test, when "ourapp" started, it checked to see if an
IP was assigned to the system and there was not, causing it to take an
unexpected logic path. Our understanding though was that since we had
an
entry in rc.conf defining the IP then our app should have started after
that IP was assigned. Is this true or is there potentially a timing
issue here?
