And once that is fixed the server is going to stay up until the next major crap I need to have everything rebooted/off in an outage window. Theoretically this testing should be done in in a staging environment, but I have only seen 3 places in 40 years with any time or ability to do so. Most of the places I have worked have had 'staging' environments which are really spare parts for production or actually in some level of production for other departments to 'stage' their code.
I think 30 seconds is going to be a better fit for most services. Ones which need a longer time can override it in their service files and those will be easier to find. > > > And as you asked: On my (bare metal) servers, Im am occasionally > experiencing delayed shutdowns in the order of several minutes. > > > > This is simply inacceptable! > > Yes, but then always simply pulling the plug is not acceptable either, I > think. > > > > -- > Peter Boy > https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Pboy > p...@fedoraproject.org > > Timezone: CET (UTC+1) / CEST (UTC+2) > > > Fedora Server Edition Working Group member > Fedora docs team contributor > Java developer and enthusiast > > > _______________________________________________ > devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org > To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org > Fedora Code of Conduct: > https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ > List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines > List Archives: > https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org > Do not reply to spam, report it: > https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue > -- Stephen Smoogen, Red Hat Automotive Let us be kind to one another, for most of us are fighting a hard battle. -- Ian MacClaren
