Issue #22856 has been reported by Daniele Sluijters. ---------------------------------------- Feature #22856: init-system autodetection https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/22856
* Author: Daniele Sluijters * Status: Unreviewed * Priority: Normal * Assignee: * Category: provider * Target version: * Affected Puppet version: * Keywords: * Branch: ---------------------------------------- A lot of Linux distributions are currently going through a transition from some $other-init system to systemd. In this transitional phase it's not uncommon to have both systemd and $other-init to run in parallel and do different things. Currently it seems that if systemd is detected and if it is the default for the platform the service provider will just use systemd, regardless of if it's actually being used as the init-system instead of just the udev replacement part of it, for example. The idea would be to extend Puppet to lookup who actually is the process with id 1, init or systemd or something else entirely and set the provider accordingly. This would hopefully ease administrators' burden while the distributions they use are in this transitional period as they won't have to micro-manage the service provider per machine. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
