Have you tried to shutdown from a CL console.
$ pinfo shutdown:
SHUTDOWN(8) Linux System Administratorʼs Manual
NAME
shutdown - bring the system down
SYNOPSIS
/sbin/shutdown [-t sec] [-arkhncfFHP] time
[warning-message]
DESCRIPTION
shutdown brings the system down in a secure way. All
logged-in users are notified that the system is going
down, and login(1) is blocked. It is possible to shut the
system down immediately or after a specified delay. All
processes are first notified that the system is going down by
the signal SIGTERM. This gives programs like vi(1) the time to
save the file being edited, mail and news processing programs
a chance to exit cleanly, etc. shutdown does its job by
signalling the init process, asking it to change the runlevel.
Kind Regards,
Keith
