.SH NAME
rpm-plugin-systemd-inhibit \- Plugin for the RPM Package Manager

.SH 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

\fBsystemd-inhibit --mode=block --what=idle:sleep:shutdown --who=RPM --why="Transaction running"\fR

See \fBsystemd-inhibit(1)\fR for the details of this mechanism.

It is strongly advised to have the plugin installed on all systemd
based systems.

.SH 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.

.SH Configuration

The plugin currently does not have any configuration option other than
turning it on and off. It can be disabled by commenting out the
\fI%__transaction_systemd_inhibit\fR macro in main macros file
(typically located at \fI/usr/lib/rpm/macros\fR) or otherwise change
the value of the macro.

Another option is to remove the plugin from the system if it is
packaged in its own sub package.
