Re: [libvirt] [PATCH] Configuring systemd to restart libvirt on abort

The systemd.service man page says [quote] Takes one of no, on-success, on-failure, on-abort, or always. If set to no (the default) the service will not be restarted. If set to on-success it will be restarted only when the service process exits cleanly. In this context, a clean exit means an exit code of 0, or one of the signals SIGHUP, SIGINT, SIGTERM, or SIGPIPE, and additionally, exit statuses and signals specified in SuccessExitStatus=. If set to on-failure the service will be restarted when the process exits with an nonzero exit code, is terminated by a signal (including on core dump), when an operation (such as service reload) times out, and when the configured watchdog timeout is triggered. If set to on-abort the service will be restarted only if the service process exits due to an uncaught signal not specified as a clean exit status. If set to always the service will be restarted regardless whether it exited cleanly or not, got terminated abnormally by a signal or hit a timeout. [/quote] I tend towards saying 'on-failure' here.
