<h1> s6-rc </h1>
<h2> What is it ? </h2>
<p>
s6-rc is a service manager for
<a href="http://skarnet.org/software/s6/">s6</a>-based
systems, i.e. a suite of programs that can start and stop
services, both long-running daemons and one-time
initialization scripts, in the proper order according to a
dependency tree. It ensures that long-running daemons are
supervised by the s6 infrastructure, and that one-time
scripts are also run in a controlled environment.
