I think it's different than hardware watchdog (in case of system hang). Here it's more software watchdog, services tell to systemd that they are running. (for pvestatd, between each loop for example) and if systemd don't receive the notify, it's restart the service. http://0pointer.de/blog/projects/watchdog.html ----- Mail original ----- De: "dietmar" <diet...@proxmox.com> À: "aderumier" <aderum...@odiso.com>, "pve-devel" <pve-devel@pve.proxmox.com> Envoyé: Mercredi 4 Mars 2015 06:39:53 Objet: Re: [pve-devel] systemd notify/watchdog > systemd have a watchdog feature > > http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man3/sd_watchdog_enabled.3.html > > which could be great for some services, like pvestatd.

Or does it work without opening /dev/watchdog? /dev/watchdog can be used only once, and I have other plans for it (ha soft fence). _______________________________________________ pve-devel mailing list pve-devel@pve.proxmox.com http://pve.proxmox.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pve-devel
