Are you suggesting that I override the start command to a noop, and make
sure the restart command works in that scenario? Thinking that over, it
has potential. I suppose it would refrain from starting a crashed
service, but it would pass the test in type/provider.rb that's been
causing me grief:
# Basically just a synonym for restarting. Used to respond
# to events.
def refresh
# Only restart if we're actually running
if (@parameters[:ensure] || newattr(:ensure)).retrieve == :running
provider.restart
else
debug "Skipping restart; service is not running"
end
end
I think I'll continue to use the fully-specified provider to gain the
enablement features among other things.
Thank you, that seems eminently sensible!
