'supervising' in process list

[Tim Edwards]

I've asked the syslog-ng mailing list but got no response here. I'm not
sure if this is something related to syslog or a general thing but can
someone explain to me what the 'supervising syslog-ng' process is doing,
and where (what package or sub-system) it comes from?

root 18622 1  0 08:53 ?00:00:00 supervising syslog-ng

root 18623 18622  0 08:53 ?00:00:00
/opt/syslog-ng/sbin/syslog-ng --no-caps

Thanks

Think you're refering to:

http://supervisord.org/
http://linux.die.net/man/3/supervisor

Maybe, however I can't see any of the config files or binaries mentioned
in the documentation on their website on the system. Ie. a simple 'find
/ | grep -i supervis' returns nothing.
