Kibana 4 as Service

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hi.
I've created a init.d file to run Kibana 4 as a service. As I couldn't find
anywhere a init that worked in RedHat 6.6 I created this one, that should
work in most Linux distros.
It has been tested in RH6.6, Ubuntu 14.10 and Centos 7. Enjoy!

[ -f "$PIDFILE" ]
}

do_start() {

    if pid_file_exists
    then
                    echo "Kibana is already running"
    else
                    $DAEMON $DAEMON_ARGS 1>"$LOG" 2>&1 &
