It can be used to send arbitrary + information, encoded in an environment-block-like list + of strings. Most importantly it can be used for + start-up completion notification. + + This is mostly just a wrapper around + sd_notify() and makes this + functionality available to shell scripts. For details + see + sd_notify3. + + The command line may carry a list of + environment variables to send as part of the status + update. + + + + + Options + + The following options are understood: + + + + + + + Prints a short help + text and exits. + + + + + + Inform the init system + about service start-up + completion. This is equivalent to + systemd-notify + READY=1. For details about + the semantics of this option see + sd_notify3. + + + + + + Inform the init system + about the main PID of the + daemon. Takes a PID as argument. If + the argument is omitted the PID of the + process that invoked + systemd-notify is + used. This is equivalent to + systemd-notify + MAINPID=$PID. For details + about the semantics of this option see + sd_notify3. + + + + + + Send a free-form + status string for the daemon to the + init systemd. This option takes the + status string as argument. This is + equivalent to systemd-notify + STATUS=.... For details + about the semantics of this option see + sd_notify3. + + + + + + Returns 0 if the + system was booted up with systemd, + non-zero otherwise. If this option is + passed no message is sent. This option + is hence unrelated to the other + options. For details about the + semantics of this option see + sd_booted3. + + + + + + + Exit status + + On success 0 is returned, a non-zero failure + code otherwise. + + + + See Also + + systemd1, + systemctl1, + systemd.unit5, + sd_notify3, + sd_booted3 + + + + -- 2.30.2
