| gahan | anyone has experience of removing systemd in xenial in favour of upstart? I'm getting too many issues with systemd | 10:30 |
|---|---|---|
| AnrDaemon | apt-get install upstart-sysv | 10:32 |
| gahan | and then reboot? | 10:33 |
| gahan | am I likely to encounter some issues? | 10:33 |
| AnrDaemon | I didn't try it yet. But this what an official wiki suggest. | 10:34 |
| gahan | can you provide me the link please? | 10:35 |
| AnrDaemon | Google? It would take as much time for you as for me. | 10:35 |
| gahan | I can only find instructions for 15.04 :) sorry | 10:39 |
| AnrDaemon | http://lmgtfy.com/?q=upstart+vs+systemd second or third link - "SystemDForUpstartUsers" | 10:43 |
| gahan | I tried apt-get install upstart-sysv but grub2 wasn't updated, still uses init=/lib/systemd/systemd | 10:56 |
| gahan | I tried on VM and it doesn't boot | 11:01 |
| AnrDaemon | Thanks. That's interesting. | 11:03 |
| gahan | it did update grub in the end | 11:03 |
| gahan | making upstart default and systemd optional | 11:03 |
| AnrDaemon | Did it rebuild initrd or you had to do it manually? | 11:03 |
| gahan | I rebuilt it | 11:03 |
| gahan | but it didn't help | 11:04 |
| gahan | Something to do with the volumes | 11:04 |
| gahan | ubuntu-vg wasn't found | 11:04 |
| AnrDaemon | Oh, you have it on LVM? | 11:04 |
| gahan | yeah | 11:04 |
| AnrDaemon | That's different. | 11:04 |
| gahan | I'm trying to migrate in openstak though | 11:04 |
| gahan | which is different too unfortunately | 11:04 |
| AnrDaemon | hah | 11:06 |
| gahan | openstack handled it better | 11:23 |
| gahan | tried with a test instance | 11:23 |
| gahan | still have /lib/systemd/systemd-udevd running though | 11:24 |
| Troova | Hi - I'm hoping for a bit of help understanding upstart monitoring | 13:52 |
| Troova | I am using upstart 0.6.5 on RHEL 6, and I need to change to a new user to run my application. | 13:56 |
| AnrDaemon | You - what? >.< | 13:58 |
| AnrDaemon | Troova: `init --version` please. | 13:59 |
| Troova | I tried the examples using su -c in the cookbook, but the tracked pid is the pid of the su calls running as root, not my application (running as a different user) | 13:59 |
| Troova | Unit (upstart 0.6.5) | 14:01 |
| Troova | Init sorry... | 14:01 |
| AnrDaemon | That's… that was several years ago. | 14:02 |
| AnrDaemon | Do you need user environment, or just start an appa with certain EUID? | 14:03 |
| AnrDaemon | Webchats… :/ | 14:06 |
| JanC | sounds right that it would be following su pid | 14:17 |
| JanC | obviously you don't want your application to fork then... | 14:18 |
| AnrDaemon | JanC: He's long gone, you're talking to the void. | 14:18 |
| hallyn | AnrDaemon: well gahan is gone but fwiw upstart on xenial is wha ti'm running, like you said, upstart-sysv did it, and if anyone asks again i have no issues :) | 14:45 |
| hallyn | except power issues. my battery lasts too long this way | 14:45 |
| hallyn | j/k | 14:45 |
| AnrDaemon | I'm going to upgrade "soon(tm)" | 14:45 |
| AnrDaemon | (Or, well, reinstall, since I want 64 bit already.) | 14:46 |
| hallyn | upgrade to yakkety, or to upstart? :) | 14:46 |
| AnrDaemon | Upgrade in general. | 14:46 |
| AnrDaemon | This server (the core) is over eight years old, and survived too many hardware replacements. | 14:46 |
| AnrDaemon | I want to reinstall it once before it is failing again. :D | 14:47 |
| AnrDaemon | (And it is running Precise ATM, if that was your question.) | 14:47 |
| hallyn | gotcha | 14:48 |
