Some init scripts support a 'condrestart' action, that will only
restart the service if it is already running. For example, on a
Fedora machine:
# service sshd status
openssh-daemon (pid 21829) is running...
# service sshd condrestart
Stopping sshd: [ OK ]
Starting sshd: [ OK ]
# service sshd status
openssh-daemon (pid 21900) is running...
# kill -9 21900
# service sshd status
openssh-daemon dead but pid file exists
# service sshd condrestart
# service sshd status
openssh-daemon dead but pid file exists
You should be able to write something like this (using the sshd service
as an example):
service {
"sshd":
enable => true,
ensure => undef,
hasstatus => true,
restart => "/sbin/service sshd condrestart",
subscribe => File["/etc/ssh/sshd_config"];
}
I *think* this works the way you want. You would have to make sure that
the init script has a condrestart action that works properly. If not, you
would have to write your own command in the restart parameter that works
the way you want.
