Description John Pittman 2020-08-26 14:48:17 UTC
Description of problem:

lsmcli mentions 'service' command rather than 'systemctl'

[root@localhost ~]# lsmcli -u hpsa:// ld
DAEMON_NOT_RUNNING(12): The libStorageMgmt daemon is not running (process name lsmd), try 'service libstoragemgmt start' 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

libstoragemgmt-1.8.3-1.el8.x86_64

How reproducible:

every time

Steps to reproduce:

Run lsmcli without libstoragemgmt daemon started

Actual results:

try 'service libstoragemgmt start' 

Expected results:

try 'systemctl start libstoragemgmt'

Comment 2 Tony Asleson 2020-08-26 15:07:51 UTC
lsmd is used from RHEL6 - Fedora.  While technically 'systemctl start libstoragemgmt' 
would be more correct in some cases, the 'service libstoragemgmt [start|status|stop]
does work on all as it gets re-directed to systemctl.

I'm thinking that is might be better to just remove "try 'service libstoragemgmt start'"
instead of adding logic to determine which hint text is more appropriate for the
given system.

Comment 8 ChanghuiZhong 2020-11-11 09:14:40 UTC
Confirm that libstoragemgmt-1.8.6-1.el8 has used "please start service" instead of "try'service libstoragemgmt start'" as the hint text.

# lsmcli -u hpsa:// ld
DAEMON_NOT_RUNNING(12): The libStorageMgmt daemon is not running (process name lsmd), please start service 

# rpm -q libstoragemgmt
