Yes, BTW you should also use $(cat $HAPROXY_PID) instead of $(<$HAPROXY_PID), because upon boot, if the file does not exist, the shell will return an error while trying to open the pid file, and not execute the command at all. Using 'cat' instead, it is 'cat' which will notice the error, but the command will start.
