how to shtdown in less than 8 minutes

2014-10-16 Thread Pierre Frenkiel

oops! sorry for the error in the subject: obviously, I meant shutdown
and not boot
I think better to re-submit with the correct subject

hi,
it seems that tha last version of systemd in jessie (215-5+b1)
has a big number of bugs, among which the very long time to shutdown, mainly
for samba (5 minutes). Trying to kill samba manually before the shutdown
did not solve the problem.
I then tried to downgrade to version 208-8, which is available
according the output of apt-cache madison systemd


systemd |   215-5+b1 | http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian/ jessie/main i386 
Packages

systemd |  208-8 | http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian/ jessie/main Sources
systemd |  215-5 | http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian/ jessie/main Sources

but I get:

apt-get install systemd=208-8 Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done
E: Version '208-8' for 'systemd' was not found

What is wrong?

best regards,

Hi Pierre,

I can't begin to answer the question what's wrong, but I have a
pretty good idea of what I'd do in your position.

I'd start moving as many as possible of my services to daemontools,
because daemontools exercises exquisite control and logging over its
services. It would even be pretty easy to write a shellscript to start
them in the order you desire. Because by default daemontools logs are
all sortably timestamped, it would be trivial to cat then datesort all
daemontools lots to see who's hogging the shutdown time.

This is more than a diagnostic test. Because daemontools is so good at
what it does, I'd just leave your services governed by daemontools,
even after you solve the problem.

HTH,

SteveT
