Oracle OPMN Startup Script

Doing some OIM work and I have a few components that rely on OPMN managed processes to start such as OID, OVD, and OHS. While the processes themselves can be managed from OPMN to start the individual services, a dependency on the EMAgent to be online for this remote control capability exists. So, we have a chicken and egg issue, we need to start a OPMN process in order to remotely manage OPMN processes.

I developed this script to run on redhat boxes to automatically start/stop OPMN processes within the init process. Please note, it starts all processes and you must modify some of the environment variables before you use it yourself. Otherwise, enjoy!
