First there was an upgrade:

Feb 12 05:09:27 s3 yum[14291]: Updated: systemd-units-26-16.fc15.x86_64
Feb 12 05:09:43 s3 systemd[1]: Reexecuting.

Feb 12 05:09:40 s3 yum[14291]: Installed: kernel-2.6.42.3-2.fc15.x86_64


Then, when a cron job noticed the new kernel and tried to do a shutdown
timed reboot via

/sbin/shutdown -r +5

in /var/log/messages I get:

Feb 13 03:00:01 s3 systemd-shutdownd[2733]: Received message without
credentials. Ignoring.


and the system does not reboot.  Since it talked about credentials, I
double checked that selinux is not active on the machine:

# /usr/sbin/sestatus
SELinux status:                 disabled

yum update is done every day, but the problem still persists.  The cron
job notices every day that the running kernel is not the new one and
tries to schedule a reboot and the same error message gets into the logs.

I have been reading about systemd. I've read everything on the wiki, the
man pages, and on Lennart's blog.  I've watched videos of his
presentation about systemd and I STILL don't have a clue.  My next
choice is to use strace on the pid and see what happens when I try the
shutdown so I can see what it's trying to do that makes is issue the log
message, but I was hoping someone here would know;)

Interesting. Does 

# init 5

or 

# reboot

work?

Boris.
reboot works, and I'm assuming it's because it doesn't have to use the delayed shutdown service.

... elision of message about not being able to try reboot by patrick...


I was just reading the source for systemd, and the message is issued here:

        if (msghdr.msg_controllen < CMSG_LEN(sizeof(struct ucred)) ||
            control.cmsghdr.cmsg_level != SOL_SOCKET ||
            control.cmsghdr.cmsg_type != SCM_CREDENTIALS ||
            control.cmsghdr.cmsg_len != CMSG_LEN(sizeof(struct ucred))) {
                log_warning("Received message without credentials. Ignoring.");
                return 0;
        }

They're getting credentials so that they can check to see if it's uid 0 and if not fail.  For some reason though, one of the things that they're checking is not true.  There's no way to tell which from the message.
Still stuck.  Another data point.  Attaching to process 1 with strace yields this:

open("/sys/fs/cgroup/systemd/system/systemd-shutdownd.service/tasks", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
open("/sys/fs/cgroup/systemd/system/systemd-shutdownd.service", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_DIRECTORY|O_CLOEXEC) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
sendmsg(14, {msg_name(0)=NULL, msg_iov(2)=[{"l\4\1\1&\0\0\0\1\0\0\0o\0\0\0\1\1o\0\37\0\0\0/org/fre"..., 128}, {"!\0\0\0/system/systemd-shutdownd.se"..., 38}], msg_controllen=0, msg_flags=0}, MSG_NOSIGNAL) = 166

We have another machine with the same hardware and software and it weathered the same update fine and continues to automagically reboot in the wee hours of the morning if it gets a new kernel.

Sigh.
