We are using SuSe Linux 12.1 which uses systemd for service daemons.
We need to start scAgent with the OS (reboot, auto restart on scAgent error)
For scAgent 4.3.0 there is only info available for sysvinit which doesn't match for systemd.
We have created the following script/usr/lib/systemd/system/ScAgent.service
[Unit]
Description=Snapcreator Agent
[Service]
ExecStart=/opt/snapcreator/scAgent4.3.0/bin/scAgent start
ExecStop=/opt/snapcreator/scAgent4.3.0/bin/scAgent stop
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
When we run the service it stops automatically:

When we check the scAgent script directly with
scAgent status
it seems to run as long as the service ist running and then is stopped after the systemd service stops.
running:
#systemctl start scAgent.service
#./scAgent status
Checking Status of scAgent:
Watchdog: Running
Agent: Running
after a few seconds:
#./scAgent status
Checking Status of scAgent:
Watchdog: Stopped
Agent: Stopped
As long as we run 'scAgent start' dircectly/without systemd it is running fine...
Does anybody have a solution to this?
Are the scripts at /bin not intended to be used with s systemd script?
