Play: automate Start/Stop OSWBB on Linux

I installed OSWatcher on Linux and want to Start OSWatcher Black Box (OSWBB) every system boot. I suggest you download package on Oracle Support - How To Start OSWatcher Black Box (OSWBB) Every System Boot (Doc ID 580513.1). If not? You might write simple script.
Install:

[oracle@test12c ~]$ pwd
/home/oracle
[oracle@test12c ~]$ ls oswbb601.tar
oswbb601.tar
[oracle@test12c ~]$ tar xf oswbb601.tar
[oracle@test12c ~]$ ls oswbb
analysis    call_sar.sh         extras.txt      iosub.sh  nfssub.sh       oswbba.jar  oswrds.sh  pssub.sh       stopOSWbb.sh   topaix.sh
archive     docs                gif             locks     OSWatcherFM.sh  oswib.sh    oswsub.sh  src            tarupfiles.sh  vmsub.sh
call_du.sh  Exampleprivate.net  init_oswbb.log  mpsub.sh  OSWatcher.sh    oswnet.sh   profile    startOSWbb.sh  tmp            xtop.sh

Example script:

#!/bin/bash
#
# chkconfig: 2345 15 90
# description: Starts and stops the OSWatcher
#
#
OSWBB_SRC_DIR=/home/oracle/oswbb
echo $OSWBB_SRC_DIR
echo "******************************************************" >> $OSWBB_SRC_DIR/init_oswbb.log
case $1 in
'start')
        echo "...Starting OSWBB from init at `date` " >> $OSWBB_SRC_DIR/init_oswbb.log
        su oracle -c "cd $OSWBB_SRC_DIR; ./startOSWbb.sh 60 72"
        touch /var/lock/subsys/oswatcher
;;
'stop')
        echo "...Stopping OSWBB from init at `date` " >> $OSWBB_SRC_DIR/init_oswbb.log
        su oracle -c "cd $OSWBB_SRC_DIR; ./stopOSWbb.sh"
        rm -f /var/lock/subsys/oswatcher
;;
'status')
        ps -aef |grep OSWatcher |grep -v grep
;;
*)
        echo "Usage: $0 start|stop" >&2
        exit 1
;;
esac
exit 0

Test Script:
