Title:
shutdown -h/-r now "wall message" message does not send wall
Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
Hi,
As far as I know, shutdown command (and other reboot/poweroff/halt
commands) are now just alias for systemctl which inits the right
target, so I am reporting this bug to systemd package.
I noted a strange thing : shutdown -h now "wall message" do not send
the wall message, but shutdown -h +<any_value> does.
I conduct this test in TTY also, it seems that when the timer is "now" (or
+0), the wall is sent after shuting down services like OpenSSH, so users logged
in cannot see it.
When the time value is +1 or more, the wall is properly displayed.
Step to reproduce :
Ubuntu Version : 15.04 from a fresh Released install (seems to not be
the case in 14.10 where systemd is not completely used, as all
shutdown/halt/poweroff/reboot commands are symlink to reboot and not
"systemctl").
- sudo shutdown -r now "This is a maintenance reboot as we discuss earlier,
server will be back in few seconds."
-> No one of my logged user saw this notice
- sudo shutdown -r +3 "This is an unscheduled URGENT maintenance. Please save
your work and prepare to immediate reboot in 3 minutes"
-> It's working.
