I have update gitlab. My first step for an update is to issue a gitlab-ctl stop command.
(Then take a snapshot, and then proceed with the update).
I updated from 8.1.2 to 8.1.4:
Here the gitlab-ctl stop command did not succeed:
It showed that the gitaly service cannot be stopped.
I terminated the process and then continued with my update procedure. But the issue I had was real. gitaly was running, althoug I issued a gitlab-ctl stop.
Problem to solve
How to stop the gitaly service?
- A gitlab-ctl command stops all except gitaly
Steps to reproduce
- gitlab-ctl stop
This wrote something like
timeout gitaly wanted down, still active (somethind liek this)
- gitlab-ctl status
showed that it is still running.
