An upstart service named autobuild-ceph gets created on the host that runs
-the autobuilder. Use ``sudo stop autobuild-ceph``, ``sudo start

+If available, use ``sudo stop autobuild-ceph``, ``sudo start
autobuild-ceph`` on the autobuilder host to manage the autobuilder.
+If stop/start do not work, ``/etc/init.d/autobuild-ceph stop``,
+``/etc/init.d/autobuild-ceph start`` will start the daemon: it is a
+simple shell script.

To get a list of other available commands, run ``fab -l``. Note
that fabric expects to be able to ssh to the host you specify, so you
should already have ssh keys setup for that host. If
hostname = run('hostname -s')
flavor = hostname.split('-')[-1]
