It seems the infrastructure is in place to deal with the problem of service failure, but operational inertia is slowing adoption. In other words, just a normal human system. :-) The one thing I didn't see addressed was the comment requesting some notification if a service became a chronic (ab)user of the restart feature, so remedial action could be taken or requested. It should be a simple matter for the OP to put the recommended Restart=on-failure command into the service file under the [Service] section for the failing services and see what happens. -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
