[jira] [Commented] (WHIRR-501) Disable Crond before bootstrap and re-enable after configuration

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WHIRR-501?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13202678#comment-13202678 ] 

Andrei Savu commented on WHIRR-501:
-----------------------------------

Note: it may not work if by the time we stop crond apt-get is already running a long task (like upgrade). Would it be a better idea to have a function like apt-get-install-with-try in whirr core?

> This problem was identified by Karel and I think the easiest workaround we can implement is to stop the crond service before bootstrap and start it again after configuration.
