I had a similar issue, except that it was running immediately after boot, performing lots of disk io when I wanted to do other things. I changed the updatedb.timer file by adding OnBootSec=3h and changed the AccuracySec=1h instead of the 24 hours it had originally. That starts updatedb sometime between 2 and 4 hours after boot. I don't know the internals of systemd, but I assume that the accuracy means it only checks that often. And now it doesn't run immediately after boot. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
