bob,

there are at least two strategies for dealing with unavailable resources:

1) configure your init system to deal with it.  in this case, you would 
modify the init system's configuration files to let it know that weewx 
should not be started until after the resource(s) are available.  for an 
rc/upstart system that would be /etc/init.d/weewx, for a systemd system 
that would be /etc/systemd/system/weewx.service. 

2) configure weewx to deal with it.  use the loop_on_init=true in 
weewx.conf to tell weewx that it should keep retrying during startup 
(normal behavior is to quit on startup when required resources are not 
available).

however, we should be sure that there is not a conflict between the way 
weewx daemonizes itself and the way systemd tries to 
assimilate^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H manage weewx.  (sorry, the scars are still 
tender from fighting systemd on a cluster node with 24-cores and 10TB of 
disk)
