[pve-devel] sheepdog init script

I don't really like the current way of assigning sheep satrtup arguments in /etc/default/sheepdog

I think to simply scan for directories /var/lib/sheepdog/disk[0-9]

If such directory contains a 'startup' file, I read startup arguments from that
file and start sheep daemon with those arguments.

We can automatically set port/path/pidfile, so usually all you need to do is

# touch /var/lib/sheepdog/diskN/startup

After that sheep start automatically for that directory.

What do you think?
