DH_SYSTEMD_START(1) Debhelper DH_SYSTEMD_START(1)
dh_systemd_start - start/stop/restart systemd unit files
dh_systemd_start [debhelper options] [--restart-after-upgrade]
[--no-stop-on-upgrade] [unit file ...]
dh_systemd_start is a debhelper program that is responsible for
starting/stopping or restarting systemd unit files in case no
corresponding sysv init script is available.
As with dh_installinit, the unit file is stopped before upgrades
and started afterwards (unless --restart-after-upgrade is
specified, in which case it will only be restarted after the
upgrade). This logic is not used when there is a corresponding
SysV init script because invoke-rc.d performs the
stop/start/restart in that case.
--restart-after-upgrade
Do not stop the unit file until after the package upgrade has
been completed. This is the default behaviour in compat 10.
In earlier compat levels the default was to stop the unit file
in the prerm, and start it again in the postinst.
This can be useful for daemons that should not have a possibly
long downtime during upgrade. But you should make sure that
the daemon will not get confused by the package being upgraded
while it's running before using this option.
--no-restart-after-upgrade
Undo a previous --restart-after-upgrade (or the default of
compat 10). If no other options are given, this will cause
the service to be stopped in the prerm script and started
again in the postinst script.
-r, --no-stop-on-upgrade, --no-restart-on-upgrade
Do not stop service on upgrade.
--no-start
Do not start the unit file after upgrades and after initial
installation (the latter is only relevant for services without
a corresponding init script).
Note that this command is not idempotent. dh_prep(1) should be
called between invocations of this command (with the same
arguments). Otherwise, it may cause multiple instances of the same
text to be added to maintainer scripts.
Note that dh_systemd_start should be run after dh_installinit so
that it can detect corresponding SysV init scripts. The default
sequence in dh does the right thing, this note is only relevant
when you are calling dh_systemd_start manually.
