Hi all,

Fixed it, thanks for the tip Rob :-)!
Certmonger was to blame or my rather slow Udooboard Celeron processor.
Anyway, instead of hacking the upgrade script, I modified the
certmonger.serivce file by adding a 180 secs (!!) sleep and extra
Timeout: (The modified certmonger.service was removed after the
upgrade)

[Unit]
Description=Certificate monitoring and PKI enrollment
After=syslog.target network.target dbus.service

[Service]
Type=dbus
PIDFile=/var/run/certmonger.pid
EnvironmentFile=-/etc/sysconfig/certmonger
ExecStart=/usr/sbin/certmonger -S -p /var/run/certmonger.pid -n $OPTS
ExecStartPost=/bin/sleep 180
TimeoutSec=240
BusName=org.fedorahosted.certmonger

Runing "ipa-server-upgrade" finished OK now. Certmonger takes itÅ› time
when it's (restarted, some dogtag-ipa-ca-r(enew ?) processes  eating
most of the cpu:

This seems like a new issue for me... Certainly, the Udoo x86 isn't the
fasted in the world, but was running IPA bravely the last year... Am I
hitting the bug Rob mentioned? Is there a bug report somewhere to
track... I'll like to see it fixed in CentOS 8.

"getcert list" showed "/var/lib/ipa/private/httpd.key" and
"/var/lib/ipa/certs/httpd.crt" wating for PIN. Running "ipa-getcert
resubmit -i 20200126151811 -p /var/lib/ipa/passwds/ipa.xxx-443-RSA"
fixed it.

It is very possible. I fixed an issue in certmonger where every time
itforked (and it forks a LOT) it closed ALL the fds it knew about.
Oncontainers this was 1M. It took a LONG time. The default is a
moremodest 1k but can still take a while given the amount of forks
thatcertmonger does. This is fixed upstream, and I don't know of
aworkaround, but this can definitely lead to timeout issues if
certmongeris being restarted immediately before this failure.
To diagnose it see what the load on the system is and what processes
arerunning. If you see dozens of certmonger processes with high load
thenthat's probably it. You'd have to hack the update script to do a
sleepto give things a chance to settle down.
