[15:18] <dan2003> Hi, Im having some trouble trying to implement a service at shutdown. I need to dump mysql tables to .db files, so have tried top use start on stopping mysql. My service runs but mysql gets stopped before it has a chance to dump the tables, how can i prevent mysql from actually stopping untill my service has finished (without hacking the mysql scripts?)
[15:19] <dan2003> and also - if it was to take a while - is there some way to ensure the machine doesn't just switch off before its finished?

[16:14] <jodh> dan2003: I think you'll have to tweak /etc/init.d/sendsigs. search for mysql in that file.
[16:16] <dan2003> ok, thanks
