| Nov 10, 2015 at 1:49 | comment | added | cas | actually, PID files come from sysvinit only starting services and not keeping track of them afterwards. sysvinit is every bit as flexible as upstart or systemd...but its design criteria is much simpler, from a simpler age. PID files exist to help other tools (or the admin on the command line) keep track of and manage daemons after they've been started. | |
