[OpenIndiana-discuss] power off not working.

[Mark Walmsley]

Wanted to update this thread because I find this mailing list is a great
reference.

I did a lot of research kept coming back to 
About adding psradm  to /usr/lib/hal/sunos/hal-system-power-shutdown-sunos

Reference to:

http://openindiana.org/pipermail/openindiana-discuss/2012-April/007732.html

I could not get this work reliably at all in fact honestly I question
whether its ever even called from that file.

What I did to resolve this was add the line to /etc/rc5 as shown below
[ -f /etc/.dynamic_routing ] && /usr/bin/rm -f /etc/.dynamic_routing
pfexec /usr/sbin/psradm -f 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
trap "" 15

But instead of using the  -f -a
A = all processors

I chose to just shutdown processors 1-7 and leave 0 so if you wanted to try
this just adjust it to the amount of processors you have.

pfexec /usr/sbin/psradm -f 1 2 3 4 5 6 7

I have shut my system down at least 30 times in the past 3 days and haven't
had any hangs at syncing file systems . done
Now the keyboard lights blink and the system powers off right after
displaying syncing file systems . done
 
Hope this helps someone in the future.

Hi,

 

For some reason I can't power off my PC running openindiana  build 151a9

 

Shutdown  -i5 -g0 -y

 

Just sits at

 

Syncing file systems . done

 

Same with init 5 or poweroff

 

Init 0 press any key to reboot works.

 

Pressing the power button also leaves me syncing file systems . done

 

 

Shutdown -i6 -g0 -y does successfully reboot.

 

 

I've never had a problem with solaris hanging after syncing file systems is
done and not really sure how to troubleshoot any help would be appreciated.
