+This directory contains run-time support scripts for CTDB.
+
+Selected highlights:
+
+ ctdb.init
+
+ An initscript for starting ctdbd at boot time.
+
+ events/
+
+ Eventscripts. See events/README for more details.
+
+ functions
+
+ Support functions, sourced by eventscripts and other scripts.
+
+ statd-callout
+
+ rpc.statd high-availability callout to support lock migration on
+ failover.
+
+Notes:
+
+* All of these scripts are written in POSIX Bourne shell. Please
+ avoid bash-isms, including the use of "local" variables (which are
+ not available in POSIX shell).
+
+* Do not use absolute paths for commands. Unit tests attempt to
+ replace many commands with stubs and can not do this if commands are
+ specified with absolute paths. The functions file controls $PATH so
+ absolute paths should not be required.
