11:55:59 <snek> is there documentation somewhere for the process of building lx branded zone images? i've done this before for containers and minimal vms on linux, but i'm new to illumos and i can't find anything specifying what's expected to exist in this image. is it just a normal rootfs? it seems like some of the joyent built ones have systemd inside them, which was unexpected to me. 
18:14:26 <szilard> So I have set up a zrepl to a dedicated backup server this way: https://extrowerk.com/2026-03-03/ZFS-replacation-with-zrepl.html However after rebooting the backup server I had to see zrepl doesn1t works. It seems the folder where the sockets should be created is missing. I see in the logs: stat /var/run/zrepl/stdinserver: no such file or directory"
18:15:16 <szilard> and the /var/run/zrepl/stdinserver is missing, while the /var/run/zrepl is there. Creating the fodler manually, and setting it to 400 and restarting the svc makes it work.
18:15:31 <szilard> I am not sure what should create this folder?
19:05:28 <sommerfeld> The /var/run filesystem is a tmpfs; the contents are lost when the machine reboots
19:06:01 <sommerfeld> any service that uses subdirectories of /var/run needs to arrange to create them when the service is started at boot time.
19:06:17 <sommerfeld> (and set permissions as needed)
19:11:47 <sommerfeld> https://zrepl.github.io/configuration/transports.html#transport-ssh-stdinserver suggests that /var/run/zrepl/stdinserver should be a directory.  Something needs to recreate it after reboot.
19:23:14 <toasterson> snek: it's a rootfs. just sometimes injecting configs to make systemd not use cgroups and namespaces. As those do not exist on illumos
19:24:44 <snek> nice, ok
21:42:42 <andyf> szilard - The zrepl package should be creating that directory before starting the service
21:42:43 <andyf> https://github.com/omniosorg/omnios-extra/blob/master/build/zrepl/files/zrepl#L21
21:46:07 <andyf> So it sounds like it should also be creating the stdinserver directory if that's a standard thing.
23:15:48 <szilard> Maybe this file should be extended with the stdinserver folder.
23:16:24 <tux0r> is there a reason why pkgsrc hasn't seen an update since december?
