ncm-sysctl: /etc/sysctl.conf takes precedence over sysctl.d #737
Comments
This was discussed briefly at the 21st workshop and agreed as a good idea. |
for reference, on EL7 there is a symlink:

According to discussion at April 2018 workshop, it seems easy to fix on EL7 by adding a Quattor-generated file as 991 or something that will be read after 99. It seems more difficult to find a clean solution on EL6 where |
i want to add here that when |
Since there's now a workaround for RH7 (use a file called 991-something), and in practice it's never really caught us out on RH5 & 6, closing this out. |
As per this post any OS vendor defaults shipped in /etc/sysctl.conf cannot be overridden in sysctl.d. The easy fix is to blank the file, either as part of ncm-sysctl, or by configuring another component (ncm-filecopy?) to do so. However it may be important to preserve any vendor supplied defaults which vary from the kernel defaults, e.g. by copying them to /etc/sysctl.d/00-defaults.conf
