Description Andrew McNabb 2010-03-15 20:21:41 UTC 
As far as I can tell, most (all) other services follow this convention with respect to "restart":

1) Try to stop the service.  If this works, print "[  OK  ]", otherwise print "[FAILED]".

2) Try to start the service.  If this works, print "[  OK  ]", otherwise print "[FAILED]".

However, "/etc/init.d/slapd restart" will quit silently if slapd is already stopped.  This is unintuitive and inconsistent with other Fedora services.  Fortunately, fixing this simply involves removing the line "status -p $pidfile ${slapd} > /dev/null 2>&1 || exit 7" from the restart case and the line "status -p $pidfile ${slapd} > /dev/null 2>&1 || exit 0" from the condrestart case.
