And there we are: close(58) = -1 ENODEV (No such device) now compare with POSIX.1-2001 EBADF fd isn't a valid open file descriptor. EINTR The close() call was interrupted by a signal; see signal(7). EIO An I/O error occurred. compare with bug#939834 and bug#939571 also I guess that leap is not uptodate with latest systemd 210. Btw: I'm not willingly to hunt the same bug twice that is that every problem fixed with systemd maintenance update for SLES-12 should be automatically submitted fo leap.
