I'd love to know what state it puts the system in... There must be dozens of examples, not yet discovered or provided, where the task is expected to take hours or days, and the admin properly logs out of the shell before that task is finished. What about remote tasks? root is exempt from KillUserProcesses, and I typically disable root on all systems, especially servers with ssh enabled all the time. So I login as chris, and use sudo to run those tasks. Are they going to get clobbered when I exit from that remote session? I suspect they would, so maybe this is not an appropriate default for server and cloud products? -- Chris Murphy -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
