Re: [Spacewalk-devel] [Spacewalk-list] Modification of spacewalk-service script
Switching to the correct list. OK, I'll modify the script to try to find /etc/init.d/postgresql OR /etc/systemd/postgresql.service. And then, I let service to the job! Thanks for the tips on systemd and see you on monday for the updated patch. Pierre 2011/11/12 Miroslav Suchy msu...@redhat.com - Original Message - 3) I'll try to find the best way to detect if systemd is used or not. I don't have a F16 box, so a few questions: - How is postgresql controlled with systemd: postgresql start and stop? old service postgresql XXX still works, it is translated to systemctl XXX postgresql.service, which is native for systemd. - Is postgresql the only software that is integrated with systemd in spacewalk? Probably yes (I'm not sure about httpd). But we use command service, which works for both old sys-v scripts and for systemd too. I recommend you the same.

Re: [Spacewalk-devel] [Spacewalk-list] Modification of spacewalk-service script
Thanks a lot for your help and hints. I'll parse rhn.conf file to find the correct db (db_backend). For postgresql real activation, I'll do some tests on my server and use your outputs. pierre 2011/11/12 Miroslav Suchy msu...@redhat.com - Original Message - Switching to the correct list.

Re: [Spacewalk-devel] [Spacewalk-list] Modification of spacewalk-service script
- Original Message - I'm against this change. The database (PostgreSQL, Oracle XE) is completely independent from the Spacewalk software product and the spacewalk-service script should have no business fiddling with them. Define completely independent. It is not true. Spacewalk use it. As it use apache. And tomcat. And jabber. Pierre is not first one, who wanted this feature, and will not be the last one. I - personally - would not spent my devel cycles on it, but Pierre is willing to do that and contribute it. We recommend to run Spacewalk on dedicated machine. And I suppose that most users obey this recommendation. So if there is DB instance, it is very likely dedicated to Spacewalk. But yes, it can be used for other purposes as well. For that reason, I wanted to have this option disabled by default. So current behavior will be preserved. If for some reason (what reason, exactly?) you need to restart everything with one script, why not write a wrapper around it? As I said, more user already wanted it. And it is much easier and better for users to code this wrapper once, and leave dozen admins to flip one variable as compared to leave dozens admins to write theirs wrapper. You can easily say, why we have spacewalk-repo-sync, when everybody can write wrapper around rhnpush? Well - it make life much easier.
