This is a pervasive failure and seen on Witherspoon / Romulus and likely on other as well.

This has an impact on rsyslog module and probably because of this even when the config was created the server config file is not created by the app

```
cat: can't open '/etc/rsyslog.d/server.conf': No such file or directory
```
