Kind regards If your shutdown delay is similar to mine, I don't think this will work because journald, which is the main log process is stopped (SIGTERM) at shutdown, and obeys. Then systemd waits for the reluctant processes to time out, and the shutdown happens. But those reluctant shutdown events are never logged because the logging has been stopped before they happen. I think maybe systemd needs to be modified so that logging is always the very last thing to be terminated during shutdown. Then, when the problem occurs, it is just a simple matter of looking in journalctl to see what the problem is. I think the above applies even if you have rsyslog enabled as your logging solution. It is also sent a SIGTERM, and obeys, before these problem processes are terminated. You can try comparing /var/log/messages or var/log/syslog (if it exists). For journalctl, just run it and find the last shutdown you did to see the messages it logs. _______________________________________________ test mailing list -- test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to test-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
