In Unix, you have different "levels" you can define for the startup and shutdown of the server. There can be up to 6, but most use only 4. You group different processes into levels based on what processes you want to startup at what time during the startup or shutdown of the server. At level 0, there is nothing going on. Level 1 you startup the files systems and normally do disk checking. The rest is based on preferences and standards. Level 2 we normally bring up some networking. Level 3 we bring up other network stuff, NTP, XTERM software, and like software. Level 4 we startup databases and applications that require processes brought up earlier.

When you shut the server down, you reverse the process.

It is how order is controlled in the startup and shutdown of Unix servers.

Ok, I am going to show my ignorance. What are you talking about when you say starting the server in level 2 or level 3?
