s6-rc - a dependency-based init script management system -------------------------------------------------------- s6-rc is a suite of programs designed to help Unix distributions manage services provided by various software packages, and automate initialization, shutdown, and more generally changes to the machine state. It keeps track of the complete service dependency tree and automatically brings services up or down to reach the desired state. In conjunction with s6, it ensures that long-lived services are supervised, and that short-lived instructions are run in a reproducible manner. See https://skarnet.org/software/s6-rc/ for details. * Installation ------------ See the INSTALL file. * Contact information ------------------- Laurent Bercot Please use the mailing-list for questions about s6-rc.
