When snmpd is started on FC6, a warning will appear.
How to suppress only this known warning message? i.e. other warning
message will still appear.
# /sbin/service snmpd start > /dev/null
WARNING: initlog is deprecated and will be removed in a future release

If I do this, I am afraid all other warning messages (if any in the
future) will be suppressed:
#/sbin/service snmpd start >& /dev/null

/sbin/service snmpd start 2>&1 >/dev/null |
grep -v "WARNING: initlog is deprecated and will be removed in a future release" >&2
