[systemd-devel] [Need Help]: What Systemd service directives to use

[Sietse van Zanen]

Hi Rajat,


Take a look at BindsTo, PartOf, PropagatesReloadTo, ReloadPropagatedFrom and <https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd.unit.html#PropagatesReloadTo=> OnFailure. I think a combination of these should achieve what you want,

https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd.unit.html#BindsTo=<https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd.unit.html#BindsTo>

Subject: [systemd-devel] [Need Help]: What Systemd service directives to use

Hi,

My name is rajat.

I have below requirement:

There are 2 processes A and B.

For the mentioned processes, below behaviour is required:

1. If process A is restarted then B should also be restarted

2. If process B is restarted then A should also be restarted

For the above-desired behaviour, what Systemd directives I should use? How I can avoid circular dependency if any might appear?

Thanks and Regards,
Rajat Rastogi
