Hey guys,

Is there a way to permanently disable MySQL from starting up on bootup / WHM restarting it?


Thank you.

Sure,

whm > service manager > monitor > uncheck mysql

then to prevent it from starting on boot:
chkconfig --levels 2345 mysql off

confirm settings:
chkconfig --list mysql

Thanks guys. Now on an SQL only server, how do I set it to auto-start upon bootup?

(Same goes for named/bind for disabling/enabling)
