-priority
The priority to run the process at. An integer value.
-start_retries
The number of retires when trying to start the process. An integer value.
-start_wait_secs
The number of seconds to wait between attempts to start the process. An integer value.
-stop_signal
The signal to send when trying to stop the process. A string value. It should be in a format that Perl understands.
-stop_retries
How many times to try and stop the process before issuing a KILL signal. An integer value.
-stop_wait_secs
The number of seconds to wait between attempts to stop the process. A intger value.
-reload_signal
The signal to use to attempt a "reload" on the process. A string value. It should in a format that Perl understands.
-auto_start

-environment
The environment variables for the process. This is a formated string. The format should be a double semi-colon delimited string of name/value pairs.

startme($ctx)
This method will start the process running. Will return "start" if successful.
stopme($ctx)
This method will stop the process. Will return "stop" if successful.
statme($ctx)
