66-scanctl sends signal to a scandir. This is a safe wrapper around s6-svscanctl.
66-scanctl [ -h ] [ -v verbosity ] [ -l live ] [ -o owner ] signal
66-scandir sends signal to an already running scandir at live location where live is /run/66 by default or the resulting path provided by the -l option. If owner is ommited, the user of the current process will be used instead.
Any signal accepted by s6-svscanctl can be passed just without the '-' character. If, for example, you want to send a -t signal, you need to use: 66‑scanctl t. A series of commands is also accepted in the same way: 66‑scanctl st. A few convenient keywords were added to avoid having to remember basic and useful series of commands like:
66‑scanctl reload
Updates the process supervision tree to exactly match the services listed in scandir.
This command is strictly equal to :
s6‑svscanctl ‑an /service
