Hi Oliver,
Dynamic instantiation is a real pain point - it's an often requested
feature, but it's surprisingly hard to make it work correctly and
safely in a supervision scheme. Supervision works very well in static
environments, but dynamic discovery is at odds with the architecture.
I have a few ideas to mitigate that and help people create instanced
services. Instantiation is a planned feature of the future s6-rc v1
but it's still a ways away; I am also thinking of adding tools to help
people handle instances with regular s6, amd they may come in the near
future, but there are currently no such helpers, sorry.
