Hi list, In one of my earlier posts I mentioned I wasn't having any issues with systemd. Well, I guess I lied, although I didn't know about it at the time.
My laptop works fine, no issues. My desktop, however, has an issue, but only while rebooting. I use mdadm to access my IMSM raid, and during the reboot process, the last message I see is (from memory, so it's not exact): "Stopping mdmon..." And it hangs there. The journal shows this: ===== -- Reboot -- Mar 18 20:48:42 osoikaze systemd-journal[485]: Journal stopped Mar 18 20:48:42 osoikaze systemd-shutdown[1]: Sending SIGTERM to remaining processes... Mar 18 20:48:41 osoikaze systemd[1]: Shutting down. ===== mdmon is normally stopped right at the end, so it should be a part of 'Sending SIGTERM to remaining processes'. The Journal stops, then from what I gather, it hangs on the next one, which is mdmon. I have left it for a half an hour and it doesn't do anything. When rebooting: ===== Mar 18 20:49:39 osoikaze kernel: md/raid10:md126: active with 4 out of 4 devices Mar 18 20:49:39 osoikaze kernel: md/raid10:md126: not clean -- starting background reconstruction Mar 18 20:49:39 osoikaze kernel: md: bind<sdi> Mar 18 20:49:39 osoikaze kernel: md: bind<sdh> Mar 18 20:49:39 osoikaze kernel: md: bind<sdg> Mar 18 20:49:39 osoikaze kernel: md: bind<sdf> Mar 18 20:49:39 osoikaze kernel: md: bind<sdi> Mar 18 20:49:39 osoikaze kernel: md: bind<sdg> ===== Indicating that mdmon was not stopped properly. (The array starts a rebuild.) Checking /proc/mdstat confirms this. Now this is the odd thing: `systemctl poweroff` works fine! It shuts everything down, and turns my workstation off without corrupting the RAID array! So why does `systemctl reboot` not want to work? I'm a little confused. I also noticed this in the USE flags for systemd: - - sysv-utils : Install sysvinit compatibility symlinks and manpages for init, telinit, halt, poweroff, reboot, runlevel, and shutdown Should I enable that USE flag? (By the way, KDE shows the same behaviour. If I shutdown with the K Menu, it works. Reboot from the K Menu hangs.) Dan
