+.SH NAME |
|
+rpm-plugin-systemd-inhibit \- Plugin for the RPM Package Manager |
|
+ |
|
+.SH Description |
|
+ |
|
+This plugin for RPM prevents the system to enter shutdown, sleep or idle |
|
+mode while there is a rpm transaction running to prevent system corruption |
|
+that can occur if the transaction is interrupted by a reboot. |
|
+ |
|
+This is achieved by using the inhibit DBUS interface of systemd. The call is |
|
+roughly equivalent to executing |
|
+ |
|
+\fBsystemd-inhibit --mode=block --what=idle:sleep:shutdown --who=RPM --why="Transaction running"\fR |
|
+ |
|
+See \fBsystemd-inhibit(1)\fR for the details of this mechanism. |
|
+ |
|
+It is strongly advised to have the plugin installed on all systemd |
|
+based systems. |
|
+ |
|
+.SH Prerequisites |
|
+ |
|
+For the plugin to work systemd has to be used as init system and |
|
+though the DBUS system bus must be available. If the plugin cannot access the |
|
+interface it gives a warning but does not stop the transaction. |
|
+ |
|
+.SH Configuration |
|
+ |
|
+The plugin currently does not have any configuration option other than |
|
+turning it on and off. It can be disabled by commenting out the |
|
+\fI%__transaction_systemd_inhibit\fR macro in main macros file |
|
+(typically located at \fI/usr/lib/rpm/macros\fR) or otherwise change |
|
+the value of the macro. |
|
+ |
|
+Another option is to remove the plugin from the system if it is |
|
+packaged in its own sub package. |
