66-svctl

This command is used to control an already supervised services in live defined in tree.

Interface

	66-svctl [ -h help ] [ -v verbosity ] [ -l live ] [ -t tree ] [ -T timeout ] [ -S service timeout ] [ -n death ] [ -u|U up ] [ -d|D down ] service(s)
	

This tool expects to find an already supervised service in live defined in the given tree and an already running scandir. This tool only deal with 'classic' service—see 66-dbctl for other kind of services.

Multiple services can be handled by seperating their names with a space. 66-svctl gathers the service(s) passed as argument in a list called selection.

Options

Note

You can sends a signal to a 'classic' service with the s6-svc program. s6-svc has the philosophy "launch and forget" and do not take care of the exit status of the service when a signal is sends. s6-svctl does. Futhermore, the -S and -n allow you to deal directly on the command line with the timeout-up and timeout-down options even if those files doesn't exist.
