startpar-upstart-inject(8)           System Manager's Manual           startpar-upstart-inject(8)



NAME
       startpar-upstart-inject - notify startpar of started/stopped upstart jobs

SYNOPSIS
       startpar-upstart-inject job-name instance [started|stopped]

DESCRIPTION
       startpar-upstart-inject is a helper command for notifying startpar whenever an upstart job
       has started  or  stopped.   It  allows  startpar  to  run  in  a  manner  compatible  with
       upstart-based  systems,  where  many/most  jobs are started directly by upstart and not by
       startpar.  In this scenario, startpar must be notified whenever an upstart job has started
       so that it can run the init scripts for services that declare a dependency on that job.

OPTIONS
       The startpar-upstart-inject command takes three arguments, all of which are mandatory.

       job-name
              The  name of the upstart job.  Normally this will match the name of a script in the
              /etc/init.d directory.

       instance
              The instance of the upstart job, if any; otherwise, an empty string.  This is  cur‐
              rently ignored by startpar, which has no concept of service instances.

       [started|stopped]
              The  single word started or stopped which indicates whether the listed job has been
              started or stopped.

FILES
       /etc/init/startpar-bridge.conf
              upstart job which invokes startpar-upstart-inject each  time  another  upstart  job
              starts
