Can you check if there are applications active that during shutdown are stopped by "traditional" kill scripts (MQ, e.g.)?
Sometimes such a kill script can hang, causing the whole shutdown procedure to last forever.
I seem to have consistent problems shuting down whichever init state I use

Hi,
I've got a UPS connected to my Solaris 10 machine and I'm planning to run containers/zones on there.
At the moment if the UPS agent sends the signal to the solaris machine to shutdown, all the apps shutdown gracefully and then the host goes down.
If I setup containers for the apps, does... (9 Replies)
Hello.
I'm trying to get a Solaris (SunOS 5.10) shutdown and boot history. Unfortunately the /var/adm/wtmpx file does not cover the period I want to trace. It's been reset. Therefore the command, "last" (or "last reboot") does not reach back far enough.
Additionally the /var/adm/messages*... (4 Replies)

dracut-shutdown.service
DRACUT-SHUTDOWN.S(8) dracut DRACUT-SHUTDOWN.S(8)NAME
dracut-shutdown.service - unpack the initramfs to /run/initramfs
SYNOPSIS
dracut-shutdown.service
DESCRIPTION
This service unpacks the initramfs image to /run/initramfs. systemd pivots into /run/initramfs at shutdown, so the root filesytem can be
safely unmounted.
The following steps are executed during a shutdown:
o systemd switches to the shutdown.target
o systemd starts /lib/systemd/system/shutdown.target.wants/dracut-shutdown.service
o dracut-shutdown.service executes /usr/lib/dracut/dracut-initramfs-restore which unpacks the initramfs to /run/initramfs
o systemd finishes shutdown.target
o systemd kills all processes
o systemd tries to unmount everything and mounts the remaining read-only
o systemd checks, if there is a /run/initramfs/shutdown executable
o if yes, it does a pivot_root to /run/initramfs and executes ./shutdown. The old root is then mounted on /oldroot.
/usr/lib/dracut/modules.d/99shutdown/shutdown.sh is the shutdown executable.
o shutdown will try to umount every /oldroot mount and calls the various shutdown hooks from the dracut modules
This ensures, that all devices are disassembled and unmounted cleanly.
To debug the shutdown process, you can get a shell in the shutdown procedure by injecting "rd.break=pre-shutdown rd.shell" or
"rd.break=shutdown rd.shell".
# mkdir -p /run/initramfs/etc/cmdline.d
# echo "rd.break=pre-shutdown rd.shell" > /run/initramfs/etc/cmdline.d/debug.conf
# touch /run/initramfs/.need_shutdown
