All your script is showing is that, when shutting down, iptables is

There is nothing here to show why f2b is not starting.

Well, the set WAS in fact deleted, which is what initially attracted my
attention.
Before posting yesterday, I started the fail2ban server and it did start
up ok. (Not sure why it needed the manual start, except for the logged
sequence I posted.)
My main concern was that after startup it didn't process the log it
watches, and hence there was no ipset recreated for that jail.
However, exactly one hour later it logged "purge database event
occurred" and then processed the log, created the ipset, and has been
working normally since.
All is well today. I will just need to check it for manual restart
whenever csf does one of its automatic updates.
