When activating SMT, the following important operations are performed by YaST:
• The Apache configuration is changed by creating symbolic links in the /etc/
apache2/conf.d/ directory. Links to the /etc/smt.d/nu_server.conf
and /etc/smt.d/smt_mod_perl.conf files are created there.
• The Apache Web server is started or reloaded if already running.
• The MySQL server is started or reloaded if already running. If it does not exist,
smt user and necessary tables in the database are created.
• The schema of the SMT database is checked. If the database schema is obsolete,
the SMT database is upgraded to conform to the current schema.
• Cron is adjusted by creating a symbolic link in the /etc/cron.d/ directory. A
link to the /etc/smt.d/novell.com-smt file is created there.
When deactivating SMT, the following important operations are performed by YaST:
• Symbolic links created upon SMT activation in the /etc/apache2/conf.d/
and /etc/cron.d/ directories are deleted.
• The Cron, Apache Web and MySQL servers are reloaded. Neither Apache nor
MySQL are stopped, because they may be used for other purposes than the SMT
service.
