Wait for global functions and modules

⬅️ Go back to main README

Info: This script can not be used on its own but requires the base installation. See main README for details.

Description

The global functions from global-functions and modules are loaded by scheduler at system startup. Running these functions 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.

Do not add this script global-wait to the global-scripts scheduler! It would inhibit the initialization of configuration and functions.

Requirements and installation

Just install the script:

$ScriptInstallUpdate global-wait;

... and add it to your scheduler, for example in combination with the module to manage VLANs on bridge ports:

/system/scheduler/add name=bridge-port-vlan on-event="/system/script/run global-wait; :global BridgePortVlan; \$BridgePortVlan default;" start-time=startup;
