We'd need to fix a specific bug. I think that for this bug in particular, the missing [Install] section in the systemd service file (and the missing quote) are the two changes that we'd like backported to 5.14. For now, in Xenial, if you apply this diff to your /lib/systemd/system/watchdog.service file % diff -u watchdog.service-xenial watchdog.service-yakkety --- watchdog.service-xenial 2016-06-28 09:15:26.794096890 -0500 +++ watchdog.service-yakkety 2016-06-28 09:15:42.938657193 -0500 @@ -12,3 +12,5 @@ ExecStopPost=/bin/sh -c '[ $run_wd_keepalive != 1 ] || false' [Install] +WantedBy=default.target + And then: systemctl daemon-reload systemctl enable watchdog And reboot You should find watchdog service started at boot time. If that's sufficient for you, I can start the SRU process for bringing in the change to the service file in Xenial. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1448924 Title: watchdogd doesn't start on boot To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/watchdog/+bug/1448924/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
