Tuned fails during a system boot after polkit was changed to require a network

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • The setup requires the systemdgoverned polkit.service to be reconfigured to start after the network-online.target.
  • After this change has been made, the tuned.service randomly ends into failed state during the boot time, but works if restarted manually after the reboot.

Environment

  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 7
  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 8
  • systemd
  • polkit
  • tuned
  • The authentication setup gets system users and/or groups from a LDAP domain, which the polkit.service depends on.
