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.
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #605733 +++
Description of problem:
RHCS only defines three recovery options for a failed process:-
- Disable
- Restart and relocate if restart fails
- Relocate
There is not a "Restart but do not relocate" option.
The use case is a configuration running multiple custom/flaky applications using the same storage and IP address. If an individual application fails, the customer wants to attempt restart(s), but if the restart of a individual application fails, there is absolutely no point in relocating, because it's unlikely fix the problem and just mess up the other applications running on the same box.
--- Additional comment from lhh on 2010-09-15 13:29:19 EDT ---
There are three main components:
1) a restart-disable policy on the whole service which interacts
with the existing max-restarts / restart-expire-time
2) non-critical independent subtrees:
- the ability to let designated resources fail
- the ability to recover these resources
3) restart threshold policies on independent subtrees
- the ability to define max-restarts / restart-expire-time
on a per subtree basis
- operation with normal independent subtrees:
service goes into recovery when threshold is exceeded
- operation with non-critical independent subtrees:
disable subtree when threshold is exceeded
