CentOS 7 Not Shutting Down Correctly

Hi,

I have CentOS 7 with KDE installed on my workstation. Sometimes – like just now – the system refuses to shutdown correctly. The problem appeared since I installed the OpenVAS vulnerability scanner (the one from EPEL), so I don’t know if this is linked. When I try to shutdown the system, I see shutdown messages, and then it stops short on the following message:

[ OK ] Stopped logout off all iSCSI sessions on shutdown

After this I can wait for hours, nothing happens until I hit the Reset button.

Now I’m a bit frustrated because this kind of behavior was the reason I
left the Windows world back in 2001, to discover the joys of Slackware and then Red Hat.

I also notice this kind of thing never (ever) happened with CentOS
versions 5.x and 6.x.

Any suggestions?

Cheers,

Niki

  • Hello,

    If you boot without “quiet rhgb” parameters in grub, do you get more info during shutdown?

    I removed the ‘quiet’ boot parameter. Now I’m sure the darn thing will shutdown correctly just to annoy me.

    :o)
