There are broken daemons like the "cluster" support in node.js that return non-zero on clean shutdowns. While this is broken behavior, it seems the systemd standard is to support broken/non-standard behavior with optional settings. (That is, the default in systemd is a well-behaved application.) I believe any specification of a service's normal exit values ought to be orthogonal to restart behavior. This is because a clean exit value affects more than restarts. If I do a systemctl stop on a node.js cluster application and it returns "1," I want that treated as a clean exit. Allowing specification of clean exit values is key to systemctl --failed having useful output in some situations. -- David Strauss | da...@davidstrauss.net _______________________________________________ systemd-devel mailing list systemd-devel@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/systemd-devel
