So for a number of versions, 'service' has been a front end to
'systemctl'. I have a service I am testing the Host Identity Protocol,
and the HIPL implementation: http://infrahip.hiit.fi/ that is still
built around 'service'. And they maintain binaries for a number of
distros, including Centos that do not yet (if ever?) use 'systemctl'.
Now I amy not have all the terms right, but that is pretty close to the
challenge.
On my Fedora 20 system, the services come up real slow. In fact I get
errors that they failed, even though they are working! Or at least they
are testing out properly. For example, when I start the HIP firewall I get:
# service hipfw start
Starting hipfw (via systemctl): Job for hipfw.service failed. See
'systemctl status hipfw.service' and 'journalctl -xn' for details.
[FAILED]
This takes a LONG time until the failed message appears. 'ps axu|grep
hip' shows the service is running. but status shows:
hipfw.service - SYSV: HIPL firewall daemon

Apr 17 12:51:05 ee900.htt-consult.com systemd[1]: Unit hipfw.service
entered failed state.
Well the HIPL developers are looking into supporting systemctl method,
but for the present, I need the start not to take so long (and I am
talking minutes here, not a few extra seconds until the failed message).
So is there some option I could use in 'systemctl start hipfw.service'
that will cut down the start time, even if there are some warnings?
thanks
