Using systemd-185 (kmod 8, kernel 3.3.7) I'm noticing that a
few of my services are failing (sometimes, not perfectly
predictably) at boot time. When the failures occur, a manual
invocation of "systemctl restart <whatever>" always works fine
to get the services going. So it seems there are some
timing/race problems and I'd much appreciate any help with
diagnosing them.
Take thinkfan for example. My unit
/etc/systemd/system/thinkfan.service looks like this:
[Unit]
Description=Thinkfan fan controller
[Service]
ExecStart=/usr/sbin/thinkfan -q -n -z
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
Sometimes thinkfan starts fine, but other times I'm seeing
this sort of thing (extracted via journalctl):
systemd[1]: systemd 185 running in system mode.
udevd[60]: starting version 185
thinkfan[153]: thinkfan 0.7.3 starting...
thinkfan[153]: /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon2/device/pwm1_enable: \
No such file or directory
systemd[1]: thinkfan.service: main process exited, \
code=exited, status=254
systemd[1]: Unit thinkfan.service entered failed state.
