2) I do not use LVM, but I see lvm2-lvmetad.service running
lvmetad is started on demand, when anything tries to contact it. Quite a few of tools may want to know about LVM devices, triggering startup. if you are absolutely sure you will never ever need it, you can disable both services and socket systemctl disable lvm2-lvmetad.service lvm2-lvmetad.socket systemctl stop lvm2-lvmetad.service lvm2-lvmetad.socket But then you need to edit /etc/lvm/lvm.conf and set use_lvmetad=0 to avoid warnings every time any lvm command is run.
3) When I check in Yast what happens to services, I see a number of services "disabled" but "active"... (e.g. upowerd). What does it mean?
"disabled" means service was not configured for autostart. This is similar to /etc/rc?.d links in previous versions. "active" means service is currently running. E.g. someone manually run /etc/init.d/foo start. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
