Description of problem: systemctl stop rhsmcertd leaves /var/run/rhsm/cert.pid behind. The pid file should be cleaned up when the process is stopped. This does not cause problems for restarting the process but it does look strange. + ls -l /var/run/rhsm/cert.pid -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5 Mar 10 16:46 /var/run/rhsm/cert.pid + cat /var/run/rhsm/cert.pid 11493 + systemctl stop rhsmcertd + sleep 5 + ls -l /var/run/rhsm/cert.pid -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5 Mar 10 16:46 /var/run/rhsm/cert.pid + cat /var/run/rhsm/cert.pid 11493 Stopping that really ought to clean up the .pid file.
Reproducer: [root@bkr-hv03-guest33 home]# systemctl start rhsmcertd [root@bkr-hv03-guest33 home]# ls -l /var/run/rhsm/cert.pid -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 5 Apr 13 10:33 /var/run/rhsm/cert.pid [root@bkr-hv03-guest33 home]# systemctl stop rhsmcertd [root@bkr-hv03-guest33 home]# ls -l /var/run/rhsm/cert.pid -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 5 Apr 13 10:33 /var/run/rhsm/cert.pid Verification: Kevin, Dont see any /var/run/rhsm/cert.pid file being created when you start rhsmcertd service, was that intentional? [root@bkr-hv03-guest33 ~]# systemctl start rhsmcertd [root@bkr-hv03-guest33 ~]# sleep 120 [root@bkr-hv03-guest33 ~]# ls -l /var/run/rhsm/cert.pid ls: cannot access /var/run/rhsm/cert.pid: No such file or directory
Forgot add the version of RHSM [root@bkr-hv03-guest33 ~]# subscription-manager version server type: Red Hat Subscription Management subscription management server: 0.9.51.21-1 subscription management rules: 5.15.1 subscription-manager: 1.19.7-1.el7 python-rhsm: 1.19.4-1.el7
Shwetha, the cert.pid file may be short lived as it is only acquired for a short time during a check-in/autoheal.
Verified!! [root@dhcp35-160 ~]# subscription-manager version server type: Red Hat Subscription Management subscription management server: 2.1.0-1 subscription management rules: 5.23 subscription-manager: 1.19.7-1.el7 python-rhsm: 1.19.4-1.el7 [root@dhcp35-160 ~]# service rhsmcertd restart Redirecting to /bin/systemctl restart rhsmcertd.service [root@dhcp35-160 ~]# sleep 120 [root@dhcp35-160 ~]# ls -l /var/run/rhsm/cert.pid ls: cannot access /var/run/rhsm/cert.pid: No such file or directory [root@dhcp35-160 ~]# service rhsmcertd stop Redirecting to /bin/systemctl stop rhsmcertd.service [root@dhcp35-160 ~]# ls -l /var/run/rhsm/cert.pid ls: cannot access /var/run/rhsm/cert.pid: No such file or directory [root@dhcp35-160 ~]#
