It should work on any recent Red Hat system, including RHEL, Fedora, CentOS, and Scientific. It's using the systemd files so it can't start automatically with the older initscript-based versions. RH doesn't have the ifup hook for packages so it doesn't include that feature to enable/disable the SQM on interface up/down.

Note that this is just a packaging wrapper. I didn't change any of the scripts. This just drops all the files into the correct place and updates the package database so they can be easily removed or upgraded as necessary.

To install, just use "yum install sqm-scripts-1.3.0-1kp.noarch.rpm".

Start with "systemctl start sqm@eth0" (substituting your interface name for eth0). You need to first create /etc/sqm/eth0.iface.conf based on the provided example.

        So maybe run the following to get some debug output:

SQM_DEBUG=1 SQM_VERBOSITY_MAX=10 /etc/init.d/sqm start ; tc -s qdisc ; tc
-d qdisc ; SQM_DEBUG=1 SQM_VERBOSITY_MAX=10 /etc/init.d/sqm stop

I would hope that this should undo its damage at the end but will also
capture the wedged state in between. Then again this still might lead to
an unusable interface....

Thanks, I'll give that a try, probably tomorrow morning before everyone gets in. I was able to quickly get in to repair the damage and stop the service ("systemctl stop sqm@em2") by remoting in through a server I have in parallel and shelling to the router's internal interface (which isn't being shaped). The slowness didn't happen instantly but after a minute or more, when I got a call from the office that "the internet is down!". The external interface wasn't completely dead, just extremely slow, enough to eventually kill my ssh session. It recovered instantly with the stop command.
