%%
%% This module writes service/transport configuration to the table
%% diameter_config, so that the config will survive service process
%% death, and then turns it into calls towards diameter_service. It
%% also restarts services upon their death.
%%
%% The table diameter_config is only written here while
%% diameter_service reads. This is all somewhat after the fact. Once
%% upon a time the config was only stored in the service process,
%% causing much grief if these processes died (which they did with
%% some regularity) and one was forced to reconfigure. This module was
%% then inserted into the service start in order to keep a more
%% permanent record of the config. That said, service processes are
%% now much more robust than they once were and crashing is a thing of
%% the past.
