the mechanism how to start services is generic for all GNUnet services.  
You can configure which services shall be started. Configuration is done  
in a configuration file

https://docs.gnunet.org/handbook/gnunet.html#Minimal-configuration

If this configuration file is empty the default configuration is used.  
For each service there is a default configuration file. The templates  
for building the default configuration file for the secushare services  
can be found here

https://git.gnunet.org/gnunet-secushare.git/tree/src/multicast/multicast.conf.in

https://git.gnunet.org/gnunet-secushare.git/tree/src/psyc/psyc.conf.in

https://git.gnunet.org/gnunet-secushare.git/tree/src/psycstore/psycstore.conf.in

https://git.gnunet.org/gnunet-secushare.git/tree/src/social/social.conf.in

If you have started GNUnet with gnunet-arm

START_ON_DEMAND = YES

will start a service, if a client application is doing a request via the  
service api.

If you like to have the service started right from the beginning use

IMMEDIATE_START = YES

Cheers
