You know, now I look at it, I did do a couple of things. Perhaps there is Wiki fodder here, after all.
I created a file calle
/etc/default/coherence, and put this in it:
COHERENCE_OPTIONS="-c /etc/coherence.conf"
I also created an init script,
/etc/init.d/coherence, which looks like this:
#!/bin/sh -e
#
# Coherence init script
#
