systemd script for Multics by poyo

[-=EYEDREAM=-]

I wanted to leverage a bit of functionality within systemd, the ability to automatically restart a crashed process

Simply create a new systemd script;

sudo nano /etc/systemd/system/multics.service

…and add the following content…

[Unit]
Description=Multics daemon
After=network.target
Requires=network.target

[Service]
Type=forking
ExecStart=/var/bin/multics -b -C /var/etc/multics.cfg
ExecStop=/bin/kill -9 $MAINPID
TimeoutStopSec=1
Restart=always
RestartSec=5
StartLimitInterval=0

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

you might need to alter the paths

Once you’ve created the service, you need to reload the systemd daemons by issuing;

sudo systemctl daemon-reload

…then you can simply start the Multics by issuing;

sudo systemctl start multics

One final thing is to ensure Multics starts on boot, to do that, issue the following command;

sudo systemctl enable multics.service

You can check Multics is running by visiting the web interface or by running;

sudo systemctl status multics

If multics crashes it will start again automatically.

And that’s it!

Happy viewing!
