All, |

I have been working on the version bump for sys-process/runit [1]. |
4 |
|
5 |
Service directories will be stored in /etc/sv; think of this as being |
6 |
like /etc/init.d. |
7 |
|
8 |
Once this is done, there are two suggested ways of linking to the |
9 |
service directories you want to monitor. |
10 |
|
11 |
The first is to make a directory, /etc/service, which contains symlinks |
12 |
to all of the services you want to monitor. |
13 |
|
14 |
The second way is to build a structure under /etc/runit/runsvdir that |
15 |
contains multiple runlevels and link /etc/service to that structure [2]. |
16 |
|
17 |
All of this is completely reconfigurable by the user; I'm just wondering |
18 |
what the default should be. |
19 |
|
20 |
We are using method 2 currently, but with only one runlevel by default, |
21 |
so my thought is we should go to method one by default and point people |
22 |
to the documentation if they want to change it. |
23 |
|
24 |
Another reason I am suggesting method one by default is it will make |
25 |
things easier if people want to run runit as a supervisor under another |
26 |
init system. |
27 |
|
28 |
Does anyone have any comments on that approach? |

Thanks, |
