NAME

       runit-policy-rc.d - runit’s init script policy for invoke-rc.d(8)

SYNOPSIS

       policy-rc.d [--quiet] initscriptID actions [runlevel]

       policy-rc.d --list initscriptID [runlevel ...]

DESCRIPTION

       policy-rc.d is consulted by invoke-rc.d(8) to determine if a particular
       init script is to be  run  or  not.   The  runit(8)  Unix  init  scheme
       provides   service  management  and  service  supervision  through  run
       scripts, and doesn’t use SystemV alike init scripts.  The services  are
       controlled through the sv(8) program, which optionally can be symlinked
       to /etc/init.d/initscriptID to provide an LSB compatible  interface  to
       init script actions.

       runit-policy-rc.d’s policy is to only run init scripts, if the ’script’
       is a symbolic link to the sv program.

OPTIONS

       --quiet
              no error messages are generated.

       --list instead of verifying policy, list (in a "human  parseable"  way)
              all  policies  defined  for  the  given  initscriptID  (for  all
              runlevels if no runlevels are specified; otherwise, list it only
              for  the  runlevels specified), as well as all known actions and
              their fallbacks for the given initscriptID  (note  that  actions
              and  fallback  actions  might  be global and not particular to a
              single initscript id).

              runit-policy-rc.d always prints ‘‘runit’s init script policy  is
              to  only run init scripts, if the ’script’ is a symbolic link to
              the sv program.’’ and the output of

               ls -l /etc/init.d/initscriptID
