http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1155158 Bug ID: 1155158 Summary: NetworkManager does not execute pre-down-script on system shutdown Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Tumbleweed Version: Current Hardware: x86-64 OS: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Network Assignee: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com Reporter: hagen.buliwyf@t-online.de QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- I wrote a script to handle some tasks on a remote server before the network connection on my workstation goes down and put the script in /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/pre-down.d. The script logs all its actions to the journal. When i close my network connection manually (with plasma5-nm-applet) i can see in the journal that the script gets executed correctly before the network connection is closed. However on system shutdown the script is not executed at all although all network connections are terminated on a shutdown. "man NetworkManager" and "https://developer.gnome.org/NetworkManager/stable/NetworkManager.html" both say "pre-down The interface will be deactivated but has not yet been disconnected from the network. Scripts acting on this event must be placed or symlinked into the /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/pre-down.d directory, and NetworkManager will wait for script execution to complete before disconnecting the interface from its network. Note that this event is not emitted for forced disconnections, like when carrier is lost or a wireless signal fades. It is only emitted when there is an opportunity to cleanly handle a network disconnection event." I consider "shutdown" not to be the sort of "forced disconnection" mentioned in those manuals. Therefore i think it is NOT correct that the script is not executed before the network connection is closed on system shutdown. My system runs openSUSE Tumbleweed 20191023 but i can see the described behavior on systems with openSUSE Leap 15.0 and 15.1 as well. I believe to vaguely recall that somewhere in the past (openSUSE Leap 42.x ?) the script used to be executed correctly even on shutdown. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
