pulse linux init.d script?

Do you guys have a handy init.d script we could set up for the linux pulse server? Ideally, one that does some self updating on start

The Linux client installer can install the launcher as a daemon, and you can configure the deadline.ini file on the machine so that the launcher starts Pulse when it starts:

Thanks, that did the trick!

The init.d script is a bit finicky, doing a restart usually kills the process, but does not start it up again. At least, i dont see any deadline processes doing a ps aux | grep deadline. I had to do a stop, then a start to get them going.

Works now though, thanks!

One thing i wanted to do is substitute the regular pulse startup for a shell script that loops (in case pulse goes down, i want it to restart right away). I dont think i can do that easily with this init.d script :slight_smile:
