When, for whatever reason, logind or dbus is not available scheduled reboot reboots the machine immediately. >From the sources it seems that this is intended : https://github.com/systemd/systemd/blob/master/src/systemctl/systemctl-logind.c#L318 However, I report this as a bug since this is against the logic of a scheduled reboot; if someone schedules a reboot they want the system to reboot at the specified time not immediately. There has been a discussion upstream ( https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/17575 ) and a PR ( https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/18010 ). Upstream community is not willing to accept the patch but debian is. I open this bug to to pull the patch into Ubuntu once it lands in debian. [TEST CASE] The simpler reproducer is to disable dbus to imitate the real world case. # systemctl stop dbus.service # systemctl stop dbus.socket # shutdown +1140 -r "REBOOT!" Failed to set wall message, ignoring: Failed to activate service 'org.freedesktop.login1': timed out (service_start_timeout=25000ms) Failed to call ScheduleShutdown in logind, proceeding with immediate shutdown: Connection timed out Connection to groovy closed by remote host. Connection to groovy closed. [REGRESSION POTENTIAL] This patch changes the behaviour of scheduled reboot in case logind or dbus has failed. Originally, if logind is not available (call to logind bus fails https://github.com/systemd/systemd/blob/master/src/systemctl/systemctl-logind.c#L319) it proceeds with immediate shutdown. This patch changes this behaviour and instead of shutting down it does nothing. The actual regression potential is a user asking for a reboot and not getting it. Other than that the changes in the code are very small and simple and unlikely to break anything. [OTHER] This is now fixed in H, currently affects B,G,F.
