I've seen that blog before. Unfortunately, it only describes a starting a service that already has a good level of integration with some of the underlying infrastructure of systemd (e.g. dbus).

Using init these servers would: a) need to be started in a specific order and b) take a long time to start. To improve both of these scenarios I created a Python service which took an XML configuration file describing the dependencies of the various components. The Python service is started by init and forks so as to not stop the boot process. The forked process then does some basic dependency checking (including remote tests, mostly telnet or pings) before starting local services using init scripts that are not configured to be started by init.<br>> <br>> That sounds exactly like what pacemaker does.<br>> <br>> > <br>> > I'm wondering, with systemd, if this Python "control" daemon would be required at all.
