  • why UI is displayed when multi-user.target is used?

    Posted on

    I've just installed latest updates and now using 3.10.0-229.el7.x86_64
    To avoid UI loading during start-up i'm using multi-user.target:

    [root@localhost ovazhnev]# systemctl get-default
    multi-user.target

    However after latest update I do see such screen during start-up (attached). I also have other problems, my Solarflare card doesn't work as expected, but I would like to address UI issue in this question.

    Why I see "UI" when "multi-user.target" is set? How can I fix this problem/switch to "text-only" welcome screen?

    I've rebooted several times but problem persist.

    If I press esc I see "A start job is running for Network Manager Wait Online" Failed.
    I'm not using NetworkManager.
    I guess probably I should disable something from this list:

    [ovazhnev@localhost ~]$ systemctl list-units | grep -i network
    sys-devices-pci0000:00-0000:00:03.3-0000:05:00.0-net-eno1.device loaded active plugged I350 Gigabit Network Connection

    sys-subsystem-net-devices-eno1.device loaded active plugged I350 Gigabit Network Connection
    sys-subsystem-net-devices-eno2.device loaded active plugged I350 Gigabit Network Connection
    netcf-transaction.service loaded active exited Rollback uncommitted netcf network config change transactions
    network.service loaded active exited LSB: Bring up/down networking
    NetworkManager-wait-online.service loaded failed failed Network Manager Wait Online
    rhel-import-state.service loaded active exited Import network configuration from initramfs
    network-online.target loaded active active Network is Online
    network.target loaded active active Network

    =================================================
    I've enabled/started NetworkManager and related things.
    I've changed my "bonding" config files to "teaming"
    However still network doesn't start:

    [root@localhost ovazhnev]# systemctl status rhnsd.service
    rhnsd.service - LSB: Starts the Spacewalk Daemon
    Loaded: loaded (/etc/rc.d/init.d/rhnsd)
