RPM-SYSTEMD-INHIBIT(8) RPM-SYSTEMD-INHIBIT(8)
NAME
rpm-plugin-systemd-inhibit - Plugin for the RPM Package Manager
Description
This plugin for RPM prevents the system to enter shutdown, sleep or
idle mode while there is a rpm transaction running to prevent system
corruption that can occur if the transaction is interrupted by a re-
boot.
This is achieved by using the inhibit DBUS interface of systemd. The
call is roughly equivalent to executing
systemd-inhibit --mode=block --what=idle:sleep:shutdown --who=RPM
--why="Transaction running"
See systemd-inhibit(1) for the details of this mechanism.
It is strongly advised to have the plugin installed on all systemd
based systems.
Prerequisites
For the plugin to work systemd has to be used as init system and though
the DBUS system bus must be available. If the plugin cannot access the
interface it gives a warning but does not stop the transaction.
Configuration
There are currently no options for this plugin in particular. See rpm-
plugins(8) on how to control plugins in general.
