in a devstack Openstack env, how to start a service, such as aodh-listener

Posted 2020-07-07 qmzp

in terminal, when start the service, the service will run in this terminal, and if kill this terminal or command, this service will be killed.

look up the other service, each service is running in a single pts. So should start a new pts and start this service.

# ps -ef| grep aodh

root 7373 11359 0 03:20 pts/1 00:00:00 grep --color=auto aodh
root 9403 9196 0 May11 pts/35 00:00:00 sudo tail -f /var/log/apache2/aodh.log
