Wait for configuration und functions
====================================
[◀ Go back to main README](../README.md)
Description
-----------
The global scripts `global-config`, `global-config-overlay` and
`global-functions` are run by scheduler at system startup. Running another
script at system startup may result in race condition where configuration
and/or function are not yet available. This script is supposed to wait
for everything being prepared.
Requirements and installation
-----------------------------
Just install the script:
$ScriptInstallUpdate global-wait;
... and add it to your scheduler, for example in combination with
[bridge-port](bridge-port.md):
/ system scheduler add name=bridge-port-to-default on-event="/ system script { run global-wait; run bridge-port-to-default; }" start-time=startup;
