Rudder

After running rudder-init, I got a policy error generation on debian 7

 Policy update error for process '2' at 2017-03-23 12:14:03
⇨ Exit code=1 for hook: '/opt/rudder/etc/hooks.d/policy-generation-finished/50-reload-policy-file-server' with environment variables: [PATH:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/var/cfengine/bin:/opt/rudder/bin] [NLSPATH:/usr/dt/lib/nls/msg/%L/%N.cat] [OLDPWD:/opt/rudder/jetty7] [TERM:xterm] [XFILESEARCHPATH:/usr/dt/app-defaults/%L/Dt] [PWD:/opt/rudder/jetty7] [SHLVL:2] [_:/sbin/start-stop-daemon] [RUDDER_GENERATION_DATETIME:2017-03-23T12:14:02.985Z] [RUDDER_END_GENERATION_DATETIME:2017-03-23T12:14:03.238Z] [RUDDER_NODEIDS:] [RUDDER_NUMBER_NODES_UPDATED:0] [RUDDER_ROOT_POLICY_SERVER_UPDATED:1]. Stdout: '/usr/bin/killall ' Stderr: 'cf-serverd: no process found '

Cause is: cf-serverd was not running right at this moment

/opt/rudder/bin/rudder-reload-cf-serverd should not fail if cf-serverd is not running (and should not ouput /usr/bin/killall ), and should start cf-serverd if it couldn't send signal -1

EDIT: on SLES12, the message is a little different, because the machine doesn't have killall and so "kill -1 $(pidof cf-serverd 2>/dev/null)" fails:

'

But it is also due to the fact that "/opt/rudder/bin/rudder-reload-cf-serverd" failed because cf-serverd was not up at the moment.
