Hi, why this has expired without any confirmation/non-confirmation? This sounds like a terrible way to resolve bugs?!
I just had the same on a pretty vanilla 20.04 server which kernel was/is compiled Nov 13 11:40:37 UTC 2020. below command returns nothing: apt-config dump | grep Reboot also: fgrep -i reboot /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades // Automatically reboot *WITHOUT CONFIRMATION* if // the file /var/run/reboot-required is found after the upgrade //Unattended-Upgrade::Automatic-Reboot "false"; // Automatically reboot even if there are users currently logged in // when Unattended-Upgrade::Automatic-Reboot is set to true //Unattended-Upgrade::Automatic-Reboot-WithUsers "true"; // If automatic reboot is enabled and needed, reboot at the specific //Unattended-Upgrade::Automatic-Reboot-Time "02:00"; The only way I found out about this reboot was by looking into /var/log/syslog Mar 5 12:57:44 ip-192-168-141-181 systemd[1]: unattended-upgrades.service: Succeeded.

To my knowledge Ubuntu Desktop is not supposed to reboot without warning by default. I believe this is being triggered by unattended-upgrades unattended-upgrades 2.3 (amd64) Ubuntu Desktop: Description: Ubuntu 20.04 LTS Release: 20.04 One pattern that emerges is that the reboot happens right after unattended-upgrades completes successfully. There are multiple examples in my /var/log/syslog, but all show "unattended- upgrades.service: Succeeded." the same second everything begins to shut down, with nothing for a minute or two prior.
