I think another solution in systemd would be introducing a holdoff time: Instead of running immediately on boot, the timer should be scheduled for boot+5min.
This requires some investigation - sorry, I don't have a quick solution right now.
Hi, I'm experiencing the same problem caused by updatedb launching on boot. This fixes it until the desired feature is added to systemd.timer: ## /etc/systemd/system/updatedb.service.d/delay.conf [Service] # Trick to avoid launching updatedb when the system is booted. ExecStartPre=-/usr/bin/bash -c '[ $(cut -d. -f1 /proc/uptime) -lt 120 ] && sleep 120' ## EOF If the system is up since less than 120 seconds, waits 120 seconds. Also, failure does not prevent running ExecStart= given the "-" before the command line.
