Hi, there !
For the first question, I'm not sure... probably if you start it from a shell script or if you start it manualy, you can check the $? variable ( echo $? ).
For the second question, if A is a script shell or something like this, you can try this : ps aux | grep B_daemon_name. After this, like on the first question, check the $? variable. If it's value is 0, then everything is ok. If the value is 1 or something else, there was an error or your daemon is death
I hope this helped.
Good luck !
