Hello all We have some systems running systemd-37-25.fc16.x86_64.
We have an issue where a timer unit doesn't fire again if its service runs for too long. We have a logrotate.timer unit that looks like this: [Timer] OnActiveSec=10 m OnUnitActiveSec=10 m [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target and a logrotate.service that looks like this: [Unit] Description=Run logrotate [Service] Type=oneshot RemainAfterExit=no ExecStart=/usr/sbin/logrotate -v /etc/logrotate.conf StandardInput=null StandardOutput=syslog StandardError=inherit SyslogIdentifier=logrotate SyslogFacility=local0 SyslogLevel=info SyslogLevelPrefix=true [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target We rotate logs quite regularly because we have some that grow quite quickly. From time to time, logrotate will do some work (gziping logs) that takes much more than 10 minutes. We've found that in this case, the timer never fires the service again. It seems that it should run it again next time the interval is up. Unfortunately I don't have a newer systemd setup to test with right now, but maybe someone wants to take a look to see if they think this could still be a problem in the latest code? F16 is EOL today so we'll upgrade systemd at some point. Hopefully there's a fix waiting for us.
