CMK Version: 2.1.0p28
OS Version: 20.04.6
The service in CheckMK Total: 159, Disabled: 3, Failed: 1, 1 static service failed (fwupd-refresh) CRIT is displayed in red.
I have searched for solutions and haven’t found any long-lasting ones. For example: server - fwupd-refresh.service failed - Ask Ubuntu
If I restart the Linux machine, it becomes green for 24 hours. However, after that, it turns red again.
Hello Alis,
as seen in the highliest rated answer in your link, the failed service is not a real problem.
I usually tend to just mask that service in checkmk.
In the ruleset “Systemd services summary” you can exclude it with the following parameter:
Exclude units matching provided regex patterns: fwupd-refresh
Thank you very much for the quick support.
Hi everyone,
i got the same problem, since i upgraded the system from 2.3.0p12 cee to 2.3.0p27 cee a few days ago.
However, if i create a “Systemd services summary” rule to mask this problem it wont work.
The service is still marked as critical.
The only difference i get is that checkmk wont show which systemd service failed but that one is failed.
Hi,
there is currently a Bug in checkmk that will bei fixed with p28
Masking is still the solution?
sudo systemctl mask fwupd-refresh
Created symlink /etc/systemd/system/fwupd-refresh.service → /dev/null.
Masking 'fwupd-refresh.service', but its triggering units are still active:
fwupd-refresh.timer
