Transfer: the birthplace and tracking exploration of evmd, cssd and crsd, the important processes of Oracle cluster.

There are many background processes in Oracle cluster, how can we sort out the relationship among them? Let's try to explore. Let's start with the / etc/inittab file.
1. Contents of "/ etc/inittab" file
Take a look at what information is available from the Linux operating system "/ etc/inittab" file.
[root@rac1 ~] # cat / etc/inittab
#
# inittab This file describes how the INIT process should set up
# the system in a certain run-level.
#
# Author: Miquel van Smoorenburg
# Modified for RHS Linux by Marc Ewing and Donnie Barnes
#
# Default runlevel. The runlevels used by RHS are:
# 0-halt (Do NOT set initdefault to this)
# 1-Single user mode
# 2-Multiuser, without NFS (The same as 3, if you do not have networking)
# 3-Full multiuser mode
# 4-unused
# 5-X11
# 6-reboot (Do NOT set initdefault to this)
#
Id:5:initdefault:
# System initialization.
