🌸 NAME 🌸

ceph-run — restart daemon on core dump 💀

like, it literally just yeets your daemon back to life if it faceplanted.

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

ceph-run command ...

that's it. that's the whole thing. no flags, no drama. 🫶

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so here's the tea ☕ — ceph-run is a simple wrapper that will restart a daemon if it exits with a signal indicating it crashed and possibly core dumped. and which signals are we talking about? not me listing them — it's signals 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, or 11. those ones. the crashing ones. the "oh no she fell over" ones. 😭

the command you hand it should run the daemon in the foreground, okay? none of that background daemonizing nonsense — the wrapper needs to be able to see the exit. for Ceph daemons specifically, that means you want the -f option. ✨

ngl if you forget the -f the vibe check fails and the whole restart trick just doesn't work the way you want. foreground or it didn't happen. 💅

👑 OPTIONS 👑

None
