provisioning services start orchestrator
# Check service health
provisioning services health orchestrator
# View service logs
provisioning services logs orchestrator --follow
# Stop service (with dependent check)
provisioning services stop orchestrator
Dependency Management
# View dependency graph
provisioning services dependencies
# View specific service dependencies
provisioning services dependencies control-center
# Check if service can be stopped safely
nu -c "use lib_provisioning/services/mod.nu *; can-stop-service orchestrator"
Health Monitoring
# Continuous health monitoring
provisioning services monitor orchestrator --interval 30
# One-time health check
provisioning services health orchestrator
Validation
# Validate all services
provisioning services validate
# Check readiness
provisioning services readiness
# Check required services for operation
provisioning services check server
Integration Points
1. Command Dispatcher
Pre-flight checks integrated into dispatcher:
# Before executing operation, check required services
let preflight = (check-required-services $task)
if not $preflight.all_running {
if $preflight.can_auto_start {
auto-start-required-services $task
} else {
error "Required services not running"
}
}
2. Workflow System
Orchestrator automatically starts when workflows are submitted:
provisioning workflow submit my-workflow
# Orchestrator auto-starts if not running
3. Test Environments
Orchestrator required for test environment operations:
provisioning test quick kubernetes
# Orchestrator auto-starts if needed
