Convert IBM Spectrum Protect server and storage agent services from System V to systemd

How To


Summary

The scripts that are used to automatically start the server and storage agent on Linux were originally on the System V init system. Current versions of Linux (RHEL 7, SLES 12, and Ubuntu 13.04) are in systemd format. Compatibility code is available to support the older System V scripts, but it is optimal to move to systemd.
