Resources
For the following supported Linux systems, extra steps may be needed to get the Retrospect client to auto launch after the system gets rebooted.
From a terminal prompt run the following commands:
sudo update-rc.d rcl defaults sudo update-rc.d rcl enable
From a terminal prompt run the following command:
sudo chkconfig rcl on
These two leverage systemd
to manage services and for the Retrospect client to be able to autolaunch, you will need to create what is call a "Unit" file.
To create a custom Unit file do the following while running as root or using sudo.
Run the following in a terminal prompt:
touch /etc/systemd/system/rcl.service chmod 664 /etc/systemd/system/rcl.service
Open the rcl.service file and add the following text.
[Unit] Description=Retrospect Client After=syslog.service
[Service] ExecStart=/usr/local/retrospect/client/rcl start ExecStop=/usr/local/retrospect/client/rcl stop Type=forking Restart=always
[Install] WantedBy=default.target
Run the following in a terminal prompt:
systemctl daemon-reload systemctl enable rcl.service
If the service is not started, run the following in a terminal prompt:
systemctl start rcl.service
