RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Yongcheng Yang 2015-02-16 09:14:23 UTC 
Description of problem:
"service rpcgssd force-reload" should not start the service if rpcgssd is not running.
As the LSB said "force-reload	cause the configuration to be reloaded if the service supports this, otherwise restart the service if it is running". But i find that the "force-reload" just acts the same as "restart" due to /etc/init.d/rpcgssd

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
RHEL-6.6

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1.service rpcgssd stop
2.service rpcgssd force-reload
3.service rpcgssd status

Actual results:
[16:34:11 root@ ~~]# service_rpcgssd stop
Stopping RPC gssd: [  OK  ]
:: [   PASS   ] :: Service have to implement stop function (Expected 0, got 0)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[16:34:11 root@ ~~]# service_rpcgssd condrestart
:: [   PASS   ] :: Service have to implement condrestart function (Expected 0, got 0)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[16:34:11 root@ ~~]# service_rpcgssd try-restart
:: [   PASS   ] :: Service have to implement try-restart function (Expected 0, got 0)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[16:34:12 root@ ~~]# service_rpcgssd force-reload
Stopping RPC gssd: [FAILED]
Starting RPC gssd: [  OK  ]
:: [   PASS   ] :: Service have to implement force-reload function (Expected 0, got 0)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[16:34:12 root@ ~~]# service_rpcgssd status
rpc.gssd (pid 41006) is running...

Expected results:
The "force-reload" does nothing when the rpcgssd service is not running.

Additional info:
The same action on rhel7 not start the service if rpc-gssd is not running

restart | force-reload | reload all do the same thing
