Question

software updater restarts nodemanager even if only the software updater was changed

Opened this issue 10 years ago · 1 comments

If a release was ever pushed that only updated the software updater, the software updater would still restart the nodemanager. Looking at softwareupdater.main(), this appears to be a small bug rather than intended behavior.

I think this may be because 'metainfo' will always be in the list of files.

Also, it seems like the restart_client call is perhaps supposed to use updatedlist as an argument instead of clientlist. (This is unclear as the argument isn't actually used yet.)
