Description Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek 2016-01-27 03:23:22 UTC
Description of problem:
mcelog was enabled by default (using hardcoded systemctl enable). It was updated to use presets, but should still be started by default. It is ExclusiveArch: i686 x86_64.

Comment 1 Stephen Gallagher 2016-01-27 13:20:30 UTC
Zbigniew, when making requests like this, can you please provide the following information:

* Does the service require post-rpm-installation configuration in order to be useful (for example, does it need manual edits to a configuration file)?
* Does the service listen on a network socket for connections originating on a separate physical or virtual machine?
* Is the service non-persistent (i.e. run once at startup and exit)?

Based on those answers, we can determine whether I should just go ahead and apply the preset or file a FESCo ticket for approval first.

Comment 2 Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek 2016-01-27 13:36:00 UTC
mcelog is a utility that collects and decodes Machine Check Exception data
on x86-32 and x86-64 systems.

No, out of the box it just logs events, which is what we want.

It listens on a UNIX socket.

> * Is the service non-persistent (i.e. run once at startup and exit)?
Persistent.

It meets the criteria to be enabled without going through FESCo.
