TRANSACTIONAL-UPDAT(5) transactional-update.conf TRANSACTIONAL-UPDAT(5)

NAME

transactional-update.conf - transactional-update configuration file

SYNOPSIS

/etc/transactional-update.conf

DESCRIPTION

This configuration file controls and defines the behaviour of transactional-update(8).

The transactional-update.conf file uses shell style assignments, e.g. PARAMETER=value.

A reference file (also used for reading the default values) can be found in /usr/etc/transactional-update.conf.

OPTIONS

The following options are available in the transactional-update section:

REBOOT_METHOD

Specify the reboot method to use.

auto

Uses rebootmgr if available and active; falls back to systemd otherwise.

This is the default value. If the option is invalid it will also be used as the fallback value.

kured

Will inform kured (kubernetes reboot daemon) to reboot the system.

rebootmgr

rebootmgrctl(1) will be triggered to initiate a reboot.

systemd

systemctl(1) will be called to initiate a reboot.

kexec

Will use kexec to reboot the system; this will skip hardware initialization and thus boot faster than systemd.

none

Ignores any reboot request, the user has to reboot the machine manually or by other means.

UPDATE_METHOD

Specify the zypper update method to use. This value is used for transactional-update.service(8).

dup

Uses zypper dup for updating the system; use this on rolling release distributions like openSUSE Tumbleweed, openSUSE Kubic or the SUSE CaaS Platform.

This is the default value.

up

Uses zypper up for updating the system; use this for regular releases like openSUSE Leap or SUSE Linux Enterprise Server / Desktop.

ZYPPER_AUTO_IMPORT_KEYS

If set to 1 GPG keys will be imported automatically for new repositories. If set to 0 updates will fail if a key is unknown. For security reasons this option is turned off (0) by default.
