Just one more comment regarding pm. My thought was only the initial
configuration would start pm in the non-standard manner by passing it
the pm.init file. The current method of pm starting would remain the
default. This way the user and processes that start pm would remain
unchanged.

In section 5.4 Conclusion=20

What happens when a system config reset -r is issued is too vauge. We
need to know the following details:

1.	What files are deleted
2.	What files are modified / replaced

Sripal> System config reset -r functions same way with native "system
config reset" command. With the exception that it doesn't reset the
contents of intiial configuration files.

/etc/network/interfaces
/etc/network/if-up.d/addroutes.
/etc/resolve.conf
/etc/ntp.conf
/etc/hostname.

I will update in document.


We need specific details such as if the /etc/passwd file is being reset
how is it being reset to its factory settings.

Sripal> I believe this will be handled by native "system config reset"
command itself. Nothing to do anything with the Cougar Initial
configuration.

Section 10 Assumptions

Remove assumption 2. Cougar has full flash support as of submittal 7.

Sripal> will do it

General question:

Why do we have 3 pmtab files, a pmtab.init, pmtab.all and pmtab? I
understand pm has the ability to start a limited number of daemons
through the use of arguments. Why are we mucking about with these extra
pmtabs?

Sripal>By then, atleast 2 files will be required ( pmtab and
pmtab.init). If we go with two files concept, then we need to put a
restriction on the user that they should start pm only by restarting
*onstor* services. Because if they start manually, there is a chance of
user not giving proper input file to pm.
