Shawn Heisey commented on SOLR-14410:
-------------------------------------

Do we think that systemd is prevalent enough in supported systems?  Is it 
prevalent enough that we could _require_ it, and not provide a fallback to 
sysvinit?

I can say that all of the Linux distributions that I have come across recently 
are using systemd, but there are a lot of systems out there other than Linux 
that I think Solr can successfully run on.

I'm not going for a -1 here.  Native support for systemd would be REALLY nice, 
and maybe systemd IS prevalent enough that we can switch completely.

I have identified a bikeshed:  Some users are going to want the service to 
automatically restart itself if Solr crashes.  I personally think that's a bad 
idea, because a Solr that actually crashes or gets killed by one of the OOM 
mechanisms almost always indicates that there is a severe problem with the 
installation that needs to be addressed.
