  • Notify systemd that the service has completed its initialization and is fully started. It should be invoked when the service is ready to accept incoming requests:
    systemd-notify --booted
  • Signal to systemd that the service is ready to handle incoming connections or perform its tasks:
    systemd-notify --ready
  • Provide a custom status message to systemd (this information is shown by `systemctl status`):
    systemd-notify --status="Add custom status message here..."
