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 reboot.

       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.
