Nagios Support,

This is a fresh install of 5.4.7 on RHEL7.
Can anyone explain what this startup script does exactly?
I do not see the purpose for it, why does it exist?
Looking through it everything is basically commented out other than a few times to set the RETVAL variable based on passed argument.

Let me know and thanks,
Danny

It doesn't do anything and is a relic of the past.

I will coordinate with the development team to have it removed from the install at some point in future versions.
