Description
Given the following declaration in a bundle:
<BoundService? name="ExampleService?" type="chkconfig" status="on" mode="manual"/>
It seems that 'manual' means that no changes to the service will happen, ever.
The following situations will manifest given this meaning: When the service is set to not start at boot, no changes will be made when a bcfg2 client run is invoked. When the service is set to start at boot, no changes will be made when a bcfg2 client run is invoked.
The problem is that we have declared a state of the machine in the bundle, yet here we see that these two scenarios do not achieve an identical, final state.
This is not intuitive, because it is expected that despite what state the machines are in, the configuration management system will at least make them identical.
