RHEL6: Machine Agent - daemon() function not in /lib/lsb/init-functions

[rediculum]

Hello

The init script of /etc/init.d/appdynamics_machine_agent sources different init functions. On RHEL 6 the daemon() function in /lib/lsb/init-functions is not present. Instead its called start_daemon().

# grep daemon /lib/lsb/init-functions
start_daemon () {
	/etc/redhat-lsb/lsb_start_daemon "$@"

This leads to a problem using the init script:

# bash -x /etc/init.d/appdynamics_machine_agent start
+ '[' -r /lib/lsb/init-functions ']'
+ . /lib/lsb/init-functions
+ INSTALL_DIR=/opt/appdynamics/machineagent
+ RETVAL=0
+ PROG=/opt/appdynamics/machineagent/run.sh
+ pid_file=/var/run/appdynamics_machine_agent.pid
+ case "$1" in
+ start
+ echo -n 'Starting AppDynamics machine agent:'
Starting AppDynamics machine agent:+ daemon --pidfile=/var/run/appdynamics_machine_agent.pid /opt/appdynamics/machineagent/run.sh
/etc/init.d/appdynamics_machine_agent: line 25: daemon: command not found
+ RETVAL=127
+ echo

+ exit 127
