Hi Christian,
Thank you for this. This is interesting one and I definitely see value in it.
Having said that, I do have some concerns from UX perspective. I just ran a zypper ps
command on a test machine, I got the following list (it's not complete one btw).
While it may not be the typical scenario, and in an ideally managed system, only a few services would require a restart, it could still pose challenges to display all the services in such instances.
Hi @admd, it's definitely not an easy decision to make, you're right.
These seem to be the libraries used by the katello-host-tool
tracer addon: https://github.com/Katello/katello-host-tools/tree/master/src/katello/tracer
Maybe this can be an inspiration? 🙂
@stdevel thank you for the pointers. We will look into it. It might not come soon but we have it in our backlog.
Short description
Currently, Uyuni shows systems that require a reboot, e.g. after updating the kernel or systemd. It would very very useful to also have these information about services that require a restart.
Details
These information could be gathered using the operating system's package manager, e.g.:
It can also be gathered by checking old references below
/proc/PID/maps
.Katello also implements it like this and has an additional column in the UI:
What do you think?
