Description of problem: It looks like with the systemd-ification of atop that it's not trying to read /etc/sysconfig/atop. It just forks off '/usr/bin/atop', which appears to simply shove the every 10s interactive content into /var/log/messages. Ugh. The systemd answer, I guess, is for me to write /etc/systemd/system/atop.service the way I want it. But the rpm still contains /etc/sysconfig/atop which is kind of misleading. Adding an EnvironmentFile= line doesn't help since atop doesn't actually look in the env for those variables anyway, and systemd doesn't run the sysconfig file through a shell to handle stuff like CURDAY=`date +%Y%m%d`. Or I could be crazy. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): atop-1.26-6.fc17.x86_64 atop-1.26-6.fc16.x86_64 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install atop 1.26-6 in Fedora 16 or 17. 2. Change something in /etc/sysconfig/atop expecting it to do something. 3. systemctl restart atop.service Actual results: No change. Expected results: A change. Additional info:
Ahhhh. I see /usr/bin/atopd now. I'm guessing that's what needs to go in ExecStart.
[Service] Type=forking PIDFile=/var/run/atop.pid ExecStart=/usr/bin/atopd ExecReload=/usr/bin/atopd ExecStopPost=/bin/rm -f /var/run/atop.pid Seems to work a bit better for me. I am no systemd expert though. PID cleanup should probably go in atopd as well with a stop parameter or somesuch. PIDFile= and $PIDFILE could get out of whack with this setup. Ugh.
Nevermind. We are try-restart'ing so the reload is not needed. and ExecStopPost needs to be ExecStop for try-restart to work. [Service] Type=forking PIDFile=/var/run/atop.pid ExecStart=/usr/bin/atopd ExecStop=/bin/rm -f /var/run/atop.pid
So you'd ideally like to see: Description=advanced interactive monitor After=syslog.target [Service] ExecStart=/usr/bin/atop [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target Become: Description=advanced interactive monitor After=syslog.target [Service] Type=forking PIDFile=/var/run/atop.pid EnvironmentFile=-/etc/sysconfig/atop ExecStart=/usr/bin/atopd $CURDAY $LOGPATH $BINPATH $PIDFILE $INTERVAL ExecStop=/bin/rm -f /var/run/atop.pid [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target
Since the atopd script reads /etc/sysconfig/atop itself, I don't think the EnvironmentFile is necessary, nor is trying to pass the variables into atopd like that. I'm not sure what the packager wants to do for the future - get rid of the atopd wrapper script completely?
Of course, that was silly. Sorry, I've done several systemd migrations since this and had forgotten about the script. So: Description=advanced interactive monitor After=syslog.target [Service] Type=forking PIDFile=/var/run/atop.pid ExecStart=/usr/bin/atopd ExecStop=/bin/rm -f /var/run/atop.pid [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target . . .like you originally posted. Right?
Works for me... It could be possible to ditch atopd completely and use EnvironmentFile and a more complicated ExecStop (to send the USR1 signal, then TERM, then remove PID). But I would leave that for another iteration.
Ok, I'll get this into rawhide and get an update out for f17, you'll see a link here for testing/karma etc. Thanks!
