# systemd-notify
> Notify the service manager about start-up completion and other daemon status changes.
> This command is useless outside systemd service scripts.
> More information: <https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/latest/systemd-notify.html>.
- Notify systemd that the service has completed its initialization and is fully started. It should be invoked when the service is ready to accept incoming requests:
`systemd-notify --booted`
- Signal to systemd that the service is ready to handle incoming connections or perform its tasks:
`systemd-notify --ready`
- Provide a custom status message to systemd (this information is shown by `systemctl status`):
`systemd-notify --status "{{Add custom status message here...}}"`
