For example: root@desktop:~# cd /etc/init root@desktop:/etc/init# mkdir test root@desktop:/etc/init# touch test/job.conf root@desktop:/etc/init# initctl list | grep test test/job stop/waiting Upstart doesn't currently give namespaces any special functionality, but for purely organizational purposes they work fine.
