NAME

   started - event signalling that a job is running

SYNOPSIS

   started JOB=JOB INSTANCE=INSTANCE [ENV]...

DESCRIPTION

   The  started  event  is generated by the Upstart init(8) daemon when an
   instance of a job has finished starting and is now  running.   The  JOB
   environment   variable   contains   the  job  name,  and  the  INSTANCE
   environment variable contains the instance name which will be empty for
   single-instance jobs.

   init(8) emits this event as an informational signal, services and tasks
   started or stopped by this event will do  so  in  parallel  with  other
   activity.   It  is  typically  combined  with  the stopping(7) event by
   services declaring a dependency.

   Job configuration files may use the export stanza to export environment
   variables  from  their  own  environment  into  the started event.  See
   init(5) for more details.

EXAMPLE

   A service that wishes to depend on another service might use:

          start on started apache
          stop on stopping apache

   A task that must be run after another task or service has been  started
   might use:

          start on started postgresql

Free Software


Free Software provides computer programs and capabilities at no cost but more importantly, it provides the freedom to run, edit, contribute to, and share the software. The importance of free software is a matter of access, not price. Software at no cost is a benefit but ownership rights to the software and source code is far more significant.

Free Office Software - The Libre Office suite provides top desktop productivity tools for free. This includes, a word processor, spreadsheet, presentation engine, drawing and flowcharting, database and math applications. Libre Office is available for Linux or Windows.



Free Books


The Free Books Library is a collection of thousands of the most popular public domain books in an online readable format. The collection includes great classical literature and more recent works where the U.S. copyright has expired. These books are yours to read and use without restrictions.

Source Code - Want to change a program or know how it works? Open Source provides the source code for its programs so that anyone can use, modify or learn how to write those programs themselves. Visit the GNU source code repositories to download the source.



Education


Study at Harvard, Stanford or MIT - Open edX provides free online courses from Harvard, MIT, Columbia, UC Berkeley and other top Universities. Hundreds of courses for almost all major subjects and course levels. Open edx also offers some paid courses and selected certifications.

Linux Manual Pages - A man or manual page is a form of software documentation found on Linux/Unix operating systems. Topics covered include computer programs (including library and system calls), formal standards and conventions, and even abstract concepts.
