Attempt at creating a 'delayed_jobs' service on AWS EB

elastic-beanstalk-delayed-jobs.md

Delayed Jobs Service

# chkconfig: 2345 99 20
# description: Starts, restarts or stops delayed job processor
# servicename: delayed_jobs

This says that the random script should be started in levels 2, 3, 4, and 5, that its start priority should be 99, and that its stop priority should be 20. You should be able to figure out what the description says.
