Hi, there. I wonder if anybody else is seeing the same problem with el7: The symptoms are: no ping, dead video, dead keyboard. After power cycle, syslog shows that the system has attempted to go into sleep or suspend or whatever they call it.
This is very strange, usualy a system will go into suspend mode when you close the laptop lid, but these are not laptops. They are normal desktop machines (and at least in one case, there is no local user to blame for pressing the "sleep" button). So what's in the syslog: - normal activity (systemd spam) - network manager reports "sleep requested" - some kind of nm_dispatcher activity - systemd reaches sleep and suspend targets. - continues spewing sundry messages, never recovers (never goes into actual sleep). The machine is effectively dead after network manager put the network interfaces to sleep. The best google-advice I see it to disable the systemd sleep and suspend targets: systemctl mask sleep.target suspend.target hibernate.target hybrid-sleep.target systemd-suspend.service systemd-hybrid-sleep.service (now waiting for this machine to go to sleep). It is very worrysome that the syslog does not say who initiated the sleep/suspend sequence. That would be a show stopper for el7 - servers randomly going offline into uncommanded sleep/suspend. It does seem to happen rarely, but I have seen 3 or 4 machines do it at least once, so not rare enough. Any ideas? K.O.
