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 Jaylin Zhou 2010-12-14 06:54:07 UTC
Description of problem:
autofs service can not restart, but we can stop it and start it.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
autofs-5.0.5-23.el6.i686

How reproducible:

Steps to Reproduce:
1. install RHEL6
2. service autofs restart

Actual results:
# service autofs restart
Starting automount: automount: program is already running.
                                                           [  OK  ]

Expected results:
Stopping automount:                                        [  OK  ]
Starting automount:                                        [  OK  ]


Additional info:
In RHEL5u5, the restart function in /etc/init.d/autofs script is:
function restart() {
        stop
        start
}

But in RHEL6, the restart function in /etc/init.d/autofs script is:
function restart() {
        status > /dev/null 2>&1
        if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then
                stop
        fi
        start
}

Comment 2 Ian Kent 2010-12-15 02:14:49 UTC
This has already been reported and an appropriate correction
proposed for RHEL-6.1.
