I'm not sure. Maybe we can convince upstream that using "status" on a service which is composed by several sub-services via PartOf [0], also propagates the status request and merges that into a single output. Or we add a dedicated key, like PropagatesReloadTo [1], say ProgatesStatusTo Michael [0] https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd.unit.html#PartOf= [1] https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd.unit.html#PropagatesReloadTo= -- Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the universe are pointed away from Earth?
