Everything looks to me that systemd is behaving as expected until Aug 15 23:34:02 when it attempts to start xxxx-33005.service not at the rate I specified in RestartSec, but possibly at the default 100ms rate. This excerpt shows both the expected 10s restart rate as well as the unexpected restart rate. $ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS Release: 16.04 $ uname -a Linux a-hostname 4.4.0-31-generic #50-Ubuntu SMP Wed Jul 13 00:07:12 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux $ apt-cache policy systemd systemd: Installed: 229-4ubuntu16 Candidate: 229-4ubuntu19 Version table: 229-4ubuntu19 500 500 http://internal-repo/ubuntu xenial-updates/main amd64 Packages *** 229-4ubuntu16 100 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 229-4ubuntu10 500 500 http://internal-repo/ubuntu xenial-security/main amd64 Packages 229-4ubuntu4 500 500 http://internal-repo/ubuntu xenial/main amd64 Packages To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/systemd/+bug/1711255/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
