    9292In order to avoid a lot of platform/distribution-specific code, the encap 
    93 bcfg2 distribution includes and uses [http://cr.yp.to/daemontools.html 
    94 daemontools] (with some common patches) instead of init scripts and cron.

    96 The bcfg2 client (.run) distribution uses daemontools to run ostiary, and to 
    97 run the bcfg2 client periodically.

    9999On the server, edit `/usr/local/etc/default/bcfg2-server/env/OPTIONS` to 
    100100include the options you want to start up the bcfg2 server with, and then do 
    101101{{{

    106 You can use `/command/svstat /service/bcfg2-server` to see the status, and 
    107 `/command/svrm /service/bcfg2-server` to remove it.

    109 Logs for all daemontools services are under `/usr/local/var/multilog`. 
    110 They use a highly precise time format; to translate into a readable format, 
    111 pipe the logs through `/command/tai64nlocal`. 
     109Logs for all runit services are under `/usr/local/var/svlogd`.
