Setup a service in Centos 6.5

First check if the service is setup and set to run:

chkconfig --list

chkconfig --list | grep 3:on ;; lists processes set to start on boot

If the service is not listed here or needs modification, we need to add it to the etc/init.d folder. For eg., if it is missing the tomcat8 script:

cp script /etc/init.d/tomcat8

chmod +x /etc/init.d/tomcat8

chkconfig --add tomcat8

chkconfig --list tomcat8

chkconfig tomcat8 on
