I've just upgraded a box running 13.1M4 to RC2 - before I did so, I noticed that mdadm was running, for some strange reason. So I stopped and disabled it. After upgrading (zypper up), mdadm was back up and running, despite:
# systemctl status mdadm.service mdadm.service Loaded: not-found (Reason: No such file or directory) Active: inactive (dead)
Well, there is no service. Whatever you see must have been "manually" started (shell script, or whatever else). But what exactly is it that is running? Is it perhaps mdadmd rather than mdadm?
Yup, you're right: # systemctl status mdadmd mdadmd.service - LSB: mdadmd daemon monitoring MD devices Loaded: loaded (/etc/init.d/mdadmd) Active: inactive (dead) since Thu 2013-11-07 09:18:25 CET; 1h 57min ago Process: 2382 ExecStop=/etc/init.d/mdadmd stop (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS) Process: 2142 ExecStart=/etc/init.d/mdadmd start (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS) Nov 07 09:04:01 chestnut systemd[1]: Starting LSB: mdadmd daemon monitoring MD devices...

Nov 07 09:18:25 chestnut mdadmd[2382]: Shutting down mdadmd ..done In the above, I had renamed the binary, so the LSB script wouldn't find it. I'm guessing that I left out a 'd' when I disabled too. Interstingly, systemctl doesn't complain: # systemctl disable mdadm.sercvice # systemctl disable mdadm.sercvice99 Doesn't seem to mind. (surely an error message would not go amiss here?) # systemctl disable mdadmd mdadmd.service is not a native service, redirecting to /sbin/chkconfig. Executing /sbin/chkconfig mdadmd off I'm not sure why mdadmd was installed by default, but maybe it's not such a bad choice. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (15.2°C) http://www.hostsuisse.com/ - dedicated server rental in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
