+Subject: [PATCH] Add StarlingX specific restart command for Ceph monitors
+
+Since we don't use systemd to manage Ceph and we have pmon monitoring we
+have to make sure that:
+1. Restarting is properly handled as "systemctl restart" will return error
+   and manifest will fail;
+2. Pmon does not check ceph-mon status during restart. Otherwise we risk
+   getting into a race condition between the puppet restart and pmon
+   detecting that ceph is down and trying a restart.
+
+Both are resolved when using /etc/init.d/ceph-init-wrapper restart
