Good question. As far as I know runlevel 4 is not used. I've noticed 
though that some Linux distributions (RHEL) enable services in runlevel 
4 that are also enabled in runlevel 3. The LSB isn't very clear about 
this subject though. A quote from 
http://refspecs.linux-foundation.org/LSB_3.2.0/LSB-Core-generic/LSB-Core-generic/runlevels.html:

0	halt
1	single user mode
2	multiuser with no network services exported
3	normal/full multiuser
4	reserved for local use, default is normal/full multiuser
5	multiuser with a display manager or equivalent
6	reboot

If I interpret the above correctly, enabling opensm in runlevel 4 should 
be fine on all Linux distributions ?

Bart.
