Hi, I encountered a systemd bug during saving vmcore for kdump kernel. I got the following message: [ 60.283489] systemd[1]: Started Reload Configuration from the Real Root.

[ 156.681032] qla2xxx [0000:08:00.0]-fffe:0: Adapter shutdown successfully. In the kdump script, for the final step, it calls "systemctl reboot -f". But it seems the system is experiencing poweroff instead of reboot. Further more, in kdump script, even if I placed "sleep 60" before "systemctl reboot -f", the extra command did not take effect, and the system just start to poweroff immediately. So I guess there is another process to launch the poweroff action, but how to know what is it? Any suggestion?
