+# supervision tree. Options:
+#   supervised no      - no supervision interaction
+#   supervised upstart - signal upstart by putting Redis into SIGSTOP mode
+#   supervised systemd - signal systemd by writing READY=1 to $NOTIFY_SOCKET
+#   supervised auto    - detect upstart or systemd method based on

+# Note: these supervision methods only signal "process is ready."
+#       They do not enable continuous liveness pings back to your supervisor.
