| marianogg9 | hi guys, just a quick question. I need to start a job every time the vm is restarted, I've added "start on startup" to the script but it doesn't start when the vm starts | 17:10 |
|---|---|---|
| marianogg9 | is there something I'm missing? | 17:10 |
| xnox | marianogg9: the job is in the VM? And what do you mean restarted - is it rebooted, or suspended/resumed? | 17:13 |
| xnox | or is the job on the host? | 17:14 |
| marianogg9 | xnox: this upstart script is monitoring a lumberjack service (log shipping service). When the vm where it's located is rebooted or stop/started, it doesn't start automatically | 17:15 |
| xnox | marianogg9: can you pastebin the job? | 17:15 |
| marianogg9 | sure | 17:15 |
| xnox | marianogg9: start on startup, might be way too early for it - no filesystems are mounted rw yet potentially. | 17:16 |
| marianogg9 | xnox: https://gist.github.com/marianogg9/10024411 | 17:18 |
| marianogg9 | then which stanza is more suitable? | 17:18 |
| xnox | marianogg9: use : start on runlevel [2345] | 17:22 |
| marianogg9 | instead of startup you mean? | 17:23 |
| FunnyLookinHat | Is there an event automatically emitted / generated upon completion of any upstart task? i.e. I want to do something once cups.conf has run it's post-start script | 17:47 |
| FunnyLookinHat | all I can think to do is edit cups.conf to emit a special event that I listen for and then try to work with that | 17:47 |
| FunnyLookinHat | but I don't want to edit that file :) | 17:47 |
| FunnyLookinHat | Ah - you can just "start on stopped cups RESULT=ok" | 18:26 |
| xnox | FunnyLookinHat: yes, that =) | 20:14 |
| FunnyLookinHat | xnox, :) I was getting a bit confused - what I really wanted was "start on started cups RESULT=ok" ... but same difference though | 20:15 |
| xnox | FunnyLookinHat: no need for result=ok in that case. "start on started cups" means cups got successfully started and is running. | 20:15 |
| xnox | FunnyLookinHat: if it fails to start "started" event is not emitted. | 20:16 |
| FunnyLookinHat | xnox, slick thx | 20:16 |
