@ -15393,6 +15393,29 @@ This gexp specifies the channels to use for the upgrade
(@pxref{Channels}). By default, the tip of the official @code{guix}
channel is used.
@item @code{operating-system-file} (default: @code{"/run/current-system/configuration.scm"})
This field specifies the operating system configuration file to use.
The default is to reuse the config file of the current configuration.
There are cases, though, where referring to
@file{/run/current-system/configuration.scm} is not enough, for instance
because that file refers to extra files (SSH public keys, extra
configuration files, etc.) @i{via} @code{local-file} and similar
constructs. For those cases, we recommend something along these lines:
@lisp
(unattended-upgrade-configuration
(operating-system-file
(file-append (local-file "." "config-dir" #:recursive? #t)
"/config.scm")))
@end lisp
The effect here is to import all of the current directory into the
store, and to refer to @file{config.scm} within that directory.
Therefore, uses of @code{local-file} within @file{config.scm} will work
as expected. @xref{G-Expressions}, for information about
@code{local-file} and @code{file-append}.
@item @code{services-to-restart} (default: @code{'(mcron)})
This field specifies the Shepherd services to restart when the upgrade
completes.
