[libvirt] [PATCH] libvirt-guests: Weaken dependency on libvirtd

The Requires relationship is very strong, in that it prevents a unit from running unless all the units it Requires are running as well. This turns out to be a problem because we want to be able to restart libvirtd at any time without having libvirt-guests suspend or shutdown running guests. Turn the Requires relationship into a Wants relationship: this way starting libvirt-guests will cause systemd to (attempt to) start libvirtd as well, but stopping or restarting libvirtd will not alter libvirt-guests' running state. --- tools/libvirt-guests.service.in | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/tools/libvirt-guests.service.in b/tools/libvirt-guests.service.in index b4f54f2..02e6747 100644 --- a/tools/libvirt-guests.service.in +++ b/tools/libvirt-guests.service.in @@ -1,6 +1,6 @@ [Unit] Description=Suspend/Resume Running libvirt Guests -Requires=libvirtd.service +Wants=libvirtd.service After=network.target After=time-sync.target After=libvirtd.service -- 2.7.4
