## Name

runsvchdir - change services directory of runsvdir(8)

## Synopsis

runsvchdir dir

## Description

dir is a services directory for the use with runsvdir(8). If dir does not start with a slash, it is searched in runsvchdir’s working directory, by default /etc/runit/runsvdir/. dir must not start with a dot.

runsvchdir switches to its working directory, copies current to previous, and replaces current with a symlink pointing to dir.

Normally /service is a symlink to current, and runsvdir(8) is running /service/.

## Environment

RUNSVDIR
  The environment variable $RUNSVDIR overrides the default working directory /etc/runit/runsvdir/.

## Exit Codes

runsvchdir prints an error message and exits 111 on error. runsvchdir exits 0 on success.

## Files

/etc/runit/runsvdir/previous
/etc/runit/runsvdir/current
/etc/runit/runsvdir/current.new
