6:41 p.m.
I'm looking at this again since my situation hasn't changed - a simple
nfs-ganesha shutdown with the command:
systemctl stop nfs-ganesha
takes 90 seconds to return. I'm not sure how best to debug this but
looking at the systemctl unit I see this:
ExecStop=/bin/dbus-send --system --dest=org.ganesha.nfsd
--type=method_call /org/ganesha/nfsd/admin org.ganesha.nfsd.admin.shutdown
If I run that dbus-send manually, it returns immediately. If I then wait
90 seconds, nothing changes, the nfs-ganesha process is still running. A
kill command with default TERM signal does nothing to the process. A kill
-9 is required.
If I instead do 'time systemctl stop nfs-ganesha', after 90 seconds the
nfs-ganesha process ends and the time command returns.
It appears to me as if the dbus command is having no impact, and systemd
waits 90 seconds and then stops the nfs-ganesha process with KILL signal.
Anyone have any ideas about why I'm seeing this behaviour?
Any ideas about how to debug this further?
Thanks,
Todd
