Today I was reading Some SQL Tricks of an Application DBA and I learned about the RandomizedDelaySec systemd option.
Registering a systemd Service
So today I read How To Set Up VNC Server on Debian 8 which had a section on creating and registering the requisite scripts:
/usr/local/bin/myvncserver (make sure it’s executable with +x):
#!/bin/bash PATH="$PATH:/usr/bin/" DISPLAY="1" DEPTH="16" GEOMETRY="1024x768" OPTIONS="-depth ${DEPTH} -geometry ${GEOMETRY} :${DISPLAY}" case "$1" in start) /usr/bin/vncserver ${OPTIONS} ;; stop) /usr/bin/vncserver -kill :${DISPLAY} ;; restart) $0 stop $0 start ;; esac exit 0
/lib/systemd/system/myvncserver.service:
[Unit] Description=VNC Server example [Service] Type=forking ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/myvncserver start ExecStop=/usr/local/bin/myvncserver stop ExecReload=/usr/local/bin/myvncserver restart User=vnc [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target
Then to register and start:
systemctl daemon-reload systemctl enable myvncserver.service systemctl start myvncserver.service
