    depinit

    An alternative init program

    Depinit is an alternative init program that can handle parallel execution, dependencies, true roll-back, pipelines, improved signaling and unmounting filesystems on shutdown. It incorporates ideas from sysvinit, simpleinit, daemontools and make. At present, it is a bit experimental, and requires good knowledge of the initialisation process to set up.

    rc-dot-stupid

    manage init/shutdown/monitoring of services

    rc.stupid a Linux daemon that: - repeatedly runs a start script at system startup until this script exits with zero status - regulary runs a check script - runs a stop script at system shutdown Why ? Because startup systems like systemd and upstart are sometimes hard to tune in many situations, like MySQL data directory on a networked filesystem. As rc.stupid does nothing other as running scripts (or anything that may be executed) you may find other use cases like simple clustering.
