I've found easy to trigger first part with start on (net-device-up IFACE!=lo) but didn't manage to found an easy way to trigger either net-device- down, net-device-remove(d) , deconfiguring-networking my job loks like this: ################################################################## description "network test" start on (net-device-up IFACE!=lo) # stop on ((net-device-down IFACE!=lo) or deconfiguring-networking) stop on net-device-removed IFACE!=lo pre-start exec /opt/test.sh start "$UPSTART_JOB - EVENT: $UPSTART_EVENTS" post-stop exec /opt/test.sh stop "$UPSTART_JOB - EVENT: $UPSTART_STOP_EVENTS" ################################################################## to test it I just go to nm-applet and deactivate one interface. I've finally managed to make it work creating a simple script in '/etc/network/if-post-down.d' to force emmiting the signal. something like this: ######################################## #!/bin/sh [ "$IFACE" != "lo" ] || exit 0 initctl emit -n net-device-removed IFACE=$IFACE ######################################## I'm not sure if this is expecte behaviour, if this is a feature request or if it's a real bug, but for company pourposes I really need to emit a signal when any interface (not lo) goes down. please, ask for further info EDITED: I can see here https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/upstart- devel/2011-January/001379.html that '/etc/network/if-down.d/upstart' should emit net-device-down but in my case that's not true. so maybe the bug should be: event not emited by '/etc/network/if-down.d/upstart' To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/998388/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
