The effect is that the guessing in systemd might happen too early, at a time where the final main process doesn't exist yet. By turning this off we won't try to detect the main pid anymore, with the effect that all processes of the service in question are considered equally likely to be the main process. This means systemd will pick one process as the "main" process, in the remaining processes and if this process terminated, it will cause the service to enter active(exited), even if there are other processes remaining in the cgroup. In our case, it might be because there are two dhcpcd processes running, one is picked by systemd, but it will terminated because another one is running and this would cause active(exited). However, I'm not sure this state is the reason why network goes down.. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
