The Marche daemon provides a way to control system services via several remote interfaces. It is written in Python and was originally developed to control system services at the FRM-II/MLZ neutron source.

The main features are:

  • Authenticated remote access for starting, stopping and restarting services
  • Access via multiple interfaces at the same time
  • Transfer of log files of the different services to the clients
  • Editing of configuration files on the client side
  • Possibility to handle many types of service with customized jobs
  • Graphical client usable by non-admins
