===Versions previous to 10: boot process and service control===
Basically we use SysVinit, with initscripts built to handle a specific run level rc7.d. On top of that we use Runit to handle services indexed in /services / and /var/services.

A cli wrapper for the command service /sbin/e-smith/service has been created so that only initscripts which exist in run-level 7 can be run. This ensures that the supervised service is run, if one exists, and protects against running "service httpd restart". The wrapper will also choose between a sv command for runit processes or regular call to /etc/rc.d/init.d/ scripts.

=== Current SME10 alpha boot process and service control ===
+
===Version 10 on: boot process and service control===
Systemd has been designed as the way to handle services upstream. Systemd will override all /etc/rc.d/init.d/ scripts and call to /usr/sbin/service.
     −
We have added a first systemd unit for bootstrap console and make it a drop in replacement of Sysvinit to boot all processes linked in /etc/rc.d/rc7.d/.
+
====Current SME10 alpha boot process and service control====
 +
Systemd is the new Linux standard to handle services and service monitoring and is enforced upstream. Systemd will supersede all /etc/rc.d/init.d/ scripts and calls to /usr/sbin/service.
   −
From there we could keep this way, or try to move as many process as we can to systemd. This way works, but is even more complex than it was on previous SME version. Plus we can not guarantee without further scripts that one will not be able to do a ''systemctl start httpd''.

* Units written by generators are removed when the configuration is  reloaded. That means the lifetime of the generated units is closely bound to the reload cycles of '''systemd''' itself.
+
 
* Generators should only be used to generate unit files and symlinks to them, not any other kind of configuration. Due to the lifecycle logic mentioned above, generators are not a good fit to generate dynamic configuration for other services. If you need to generate dynamic configuration for other services, do so in normal services you order before the service in question.

====Overriding the upstream vendor preset : templated unit files, or not? And where?====
 +
The reference is the example of a service unit provided by the upstream vendor.
 +
 
 +
*Should we simply create a template and expand it over the unit.service in /lib/systemd/system/
 +
*Or offer a different way to override upstream vendor settings?
 +
 
 +
Furthermore should we template our file to point to /lib/ or to /etc/?
 +
 
 +
In other words, should we fight with admin space trying to overwrite changes in its dedicated space, or should we fight with upstream vendors and overwrite their files or find a way to override them?

==== Overide upstream vendor preset : templated unit files or not ? where ? ====
+
Thus the questions arise:
Thinking of the example of a service unit provided by upstream vendor. Should we simply create a template and expand it over the unit.service in /lib/systemd/system/ or offer a different way to override upstream vendor settings ? Further more should we template our file to point to /lib/ or to /etc/. In other words, should we fight with admin space trying to overwrite changes in its dedicated space or should we fight with upstream vendors and overwrite their files or find a way to override them.
     −
hence the questions
+
*Where: /etc or /lib/
* where: /etc or /lib/
+
*What: use a template or not
* How : template or not

*How: overwrite, or selective overriding
* How: overwrite or selective overriding

===== unit files created in /etc/systemd/system/ or in /lib/systemd/system/ =====
+
Looking at the options:
as a vendor we should work in /lib/systemd/system/, but as an admin helper we might want to play in /etc/systemd/system/ and rather offer a way to admin to use our template-custom or config db.
     −
==== template or not ====
+
====Create unit files in /etc/systemd/system/ or in /lib/systemd/system/?====
the first easy way to think to override ones service could be to simply template the file  /lib/systemd/system/servicename.service and expand it every time a reconfiguration or a boot occurs.
     −
Going futher we could ensure the stability of the system by making this in /etc/systemd/system/servicename.service

===== unitname.d/file.conf versus overwrite uniname.service =====
+
====Template or not?====
dot d folder can be created both int etc and lib from readings and inspection in a few systems.
     −
There are two methods of overriding vendor settings in      unit files: copying the unit file from      <code>/usr/lib/systemd/system</code> to      <code>/etc/systemd/system</code> and modifying the      chosen settings. Alternatively, one can create a directory named      <code>''<code>unit</code>''.d/</code> within      <code>/etc/systemd/system</code> and place a drop-in      file <code>''<code>name</code>''.conf</code>      there that only changes the specific settings one is interested      in. Note that multiple such drop-in files are read if      present, processed in lexicographic order of their filename.
+
:The simplest way to override a service could be to simply template the file /lib/systemd/system/servicename.service and expand it every time a reconfiguration or a boot occurs.
   −
The advantage of the first method is that one easily      overrides the complete unit, the vendor unit is not parsed at      all anymore. It has the disadvantage that improvements to the      unit file by the vendor are not automatically incorporated on      updates.
+
:Going further, we could ensure the stability of the system by setting this in
   −
The advantage of the second method is that one only      overrides the settings one specifically wants, where updates to      the unit by the vendor automatically apply. This has the      disadvantage that some future updates by the vendor might be      incompatible with the local changes. <ref>https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd.unit.html</ref>

==== uninstalling /masking unwanted/conflicting services: example of firewalld. ====
+
=====unitname.d/file.conf versus overwrite uniname.service=====
we can plan to uninstall firewalld for example, but some packages will reinstall as a requirement. It might even be started, which could conflict with masq.

=====Uninstalling/masking unwanted/conflicting services: firewalld example=====
 +
 
 +
:We can plan to uninstall firewalld for example, but some packages will reinstall as a requirement. It might even be started, which could conflict with masq.
 +
 
 +
===Systemd current implementation===
 +
Previously we had sysvinit services and supervised services under Daemontool and Runit.
 +
 
 +
We are currently moving all sysvinit handled service to systemd.
 +
 
 +
For services supervised with Runit, we either move them to systemd with their own unit if one is provided, or we create one which will keep the service running under Runit
 +
 
 +
The idea is to stop to have the Bootstrap Console start services.
 +
 
 +
====default target: sme-server.target====
 +
We use our own target.
 +
 
 +
====system-preset====
 +
The use of system presets is the basis of our method of handling the systemd services under Koozali SME Server.
 +
 
 +
For direct post-install purposes we use an e-smith-base RPM own file :  /usr/lib/systemd/system-preset/50-Koozali.preset
 +
 
 +
This file contains a list of service we want to have enabled or disabled.
 +
 
 +
Another file will take precedence without hiding it: /etc/systemd/system-preset/49-koozali.preset. This file is templated, and uses the e-smith configuration db to list services that should be enabled or disabled based on admin changes.
 +
 
 +
It is important that this file is called 49-koozali.preset (k or K?) and not 50-Koozali.preset, so it does not hide 50-Koozali.preset content, but take precedence on it. Hence, anything not declared in 49-koozali.preset will take the state of what declare the 50 one. <!-- k or K? -->
 +
 
 +
Then we use an action script to default all we want to be in systemd: /etc/e-smith/events/actions/systemd-default<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
 +
#!/usr/bin/bash
 +
/usr/bin/systemctl  enable sme-server.target
 +
ln -fs sme-server.target /lib/systemd/system/default.target
 +
/usr/bin/systemctl  preset-all
 +
/usr/bin/systemctl  set-default sme-server.target
 +
 
 +
</syntaxhighlight>This will ensure that on every run, all services explicitly enabled or disabled in the configuration db are declared this way in systemd, and if they are not in the db they are controlled according to what is declared in other /lib/systemd/system-preset/* files.
 +
Any services not explicitly declared there will be disabled (/lib/systemd/system-preset/99-default-disable.preset). So If you want a service to run you need to declare it at the very least with :<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
 +
db configuration set myservice service status enabled
 +
expand-template /etc/systemd/system/preset/49-koozali.preset
 +
/etc/e-smith/events/actions/systemd-default
 +
systemcl start myservice.service
 +
</syntaxhighlight>
 +
 
 +
Note you can also declare a service unit name with a service name with a different name. This is in beta for the moment, as it might conflict with some other script handling the services (/sbin/e-smith/service, bootstrap-console;  controlService perl function from /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/esmith/util.pm) <syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
 +
db configuration set myservice service status enabled SystemdUnit service@my.service
 +
expand-template /etc/systemd/system-preset/49-koozali.preset
 +
 
 +
</syntaxhighlight>
 +
 
 +
====service-status====
 +
We run as ExecStartPre a call to a script preventing any unwanted launch of a disabled service. This is basic and just fails the service with a message at any attempt to start it. This deals with the case that it has been started manually, or has been enabled, and prevents an event from running to disable it before reboot (is this correct?)
 +
 
 +
Currently the script just fails, but we could in the future have a property in the db to make it just send a warning and let the service start.<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
 +
#! /bin/sh
 +
 
 +
SERVICE=$1
 +
USAGE="Usage: service-status SERVICENAME"
 +
 
 +
#if no servicename is provided return usage
 +
if [[ "${SERVICE}" == "" ]]
 +
then
 +
  echo ${USAGE} >&2
 +
  exit 1
 +
fi
 +
 
 +
TYPE=$(/sbin/e-smith/db configuration gettype "$SERVICE" || echo none)
 +
 
 +
if [[ "$TYPE" != 'service' ]]
 +
then
 +
    echo "$SERVICE is not a service"
 +
    exit 9
 +
fi
 +
 
 +
STATUS=$(/sbin/e-smith/db configuration getprop "$SERVICE" status || echo disabled)
 +
 
 +
if [[ "$STATUS" != 'enabled' ]]
 +
then
 +
    echo "$SERVICE will not start (service status not enabled)"
 +
    exit 5
 +
fi
 +
 
 +
exit 0
 +
 
 +
</syntaxhighlight>
 +
 
 +
====services2adjust====
 +
Runit and Sysvinit were allowing some signals that are not handled anymore by systemd. We will have to replace those.
 +
 
 +
'''As an example <u>service masq adjust</u> needs to be replaced by <u>systemctl reload masq.service</u>.'''
 +
 
 +
for the following we could use  <code>kill --signal=</code>
 +
 
 +
*sigusr1
 +
*sigusr2
 +
*sigterm
 +
*sighup
 +
 
 +
On the other hand, systemd offers some interesting new solutions :
 +
 
 +
*start
 +
*stop
 +
*reload
 +
*restart
 +
*try-restart
 +
*reload-or-restart
 +
*reload-or-try-restart
 +
 
 +
===Service migration===
 +
 
 +
*We will have all our service unit files in /usr/lib/systemd/system/
 +
*They should all be required by sme-server.target in the [Install]
 +
*For as long as possible we will avoid templating .service files and/or their modification in /usr/lib/systemd/system/servicename.service.d/50koozali.conf
 +
 
 +
=====Previous pure Syvinit service, with a provided systemd unit=====
 +
If we are lucky we can simply use the ones provided as a replacement, we add a service.d/50koozali.conf for the service and alter it in the way we need.
 +
 
 +
'''The template will need to be expanded for ''package''-update, bootstrap-console-save, console-save, post-install, post-upgrade at least'''
 +
 
 +

Usually we then create 3 fragments

*/etc/e-smith/templates/usr/lib/systemd/system/nut-monitor.service.d/50koozali.conf/20unit

<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">

 +

#probably the most wanted part !

WantedBy=sme-server.target

You will then need to create the destination path in the spec file in %build
 +
 
 +
mkdir -p root/usr/lib/systemd/system/nut-monitor.service.d/50koozali.conf
 +
 
 +
Finally, think to remove any remains of previous sysvinit as it might prevent the service to enable in /etc/systemd/system-preset/49-koozali.preset. to enable the service all the conditions should be met:
 +
 
 +
*a key $key in configuration db should exist as type=service and status=enabled
 +
*a file $key.service should exist in /usr/lib/systemd/system/ or in /etc/systemd/system/
 +
*there should be no file /etc/rc.d/init.d/$key nor /etc/rc.d/init.d/supervise/$key
 +
{{Warning box|1=we use preset-all to enable our services, however there is a bug in systemd up to v236 (up to Rhel8). With this bug drop in configuraiton file sin *.service.d/  are ignored when systemctl search for [Install] content to do preset-all.
 +
As a result our WantedBy=sme-server.target are igored
 +
we write a replacement with systemd-default action script, but this one has also limits:
 +
# works only with sme-server.target
 +
# does not check really where is the WantedBy, if it'S elsewhere than the expected [Install] section it will use it as well
 +
# does not work with templated unit (@.service)}}

=====Previous Runit service, with a provided systemd unit=====
 +
If we are lucky we can simply use the ones provided as a replacement, we add a service.d/50koozali.conf for the service and alter it in the way we need.
 +
 
 +
As a last resort we could hide the whole file using the service.d/50koozali.conf  and simply call runit, see the next example.
