General :: Locate Shutdown Log For Linux Shutdown (RHL 5.1-2.6.18-53.el5PAE)
Apr 22, 2010
I cannot locate shutdown log for Linux shutdown to check various activities carried out during shutdown. I can view Startup Log which is availble on console>Applications>System Tools>System Logs.
I have included Shutdown/Startup in dbora, so that Oracle 10gR2 Shutdown/Startup will be automated during OS Shutdown/Startup.
I want to check Shutdown log because Oracle Shutdown was not running, as from $ORACLE_HOME/shutdown.log contains no entries, where as startup log contains latest startup details.
That means here 2 issues are there. One, I want to locate OS Shutdown Log and the other being Why Oracle Shutdown not getting executed.

I've installed Linux Mint7 (Desktop PC, Dual booting with WinXP) and most of my 'system notification' sounds work fine, with the notable exception of the 'Shutdown' sound. (All I get are several 'beeps' from the PC speaker.)When I run Mint from a live CD, I don't have this problem at all.(I'm quite new to Linux and completely new to asking questions here, so apologies in advance, if I've left out any vital info.!)

I have installed a cluster computer with 10 nodes . The manufacturer is HP . All nodes and the master node have redhat enterprise linux installed in them . When I shutdown the nodes from the master terminal using "shutdown -h now" they get shutdown . But they dont get completely turned off . This issue bothers me when the power supply is given , all nodes boot up simultaneously generating a huge heat .
Thing to note : When we shutdown our PC they get completely turned off . When the power supply is given , a press on the Power On button is required to boot the system. But , why does it not happpen in the case of cluster? Is there any other way of completely turning off the nodes from the master terminal ?

Recently I installed vncserver (tigervnc) on my desktop. Ever since my computer refuses to shutdown normally. At shutdown the following message pops up: Quote: System policy prevents stopping the system when other users are logged in Then I have to enter the root password to shutdown. If I stop vncserver before, the computer shuts down normally.
[Code]....

Ubuntu will randomly pop up the shutdown menu and then shutdown.It seems to happen when im in firefox and typing and it has been difficult to replicate. I dont think it is a temp issue since watch sensors shows temmp of 40-50C. Someimtes it happens every minute someimtes i can go 10min without it happening.

Further to this LQ thread which Tinkster solved by suggesting the last command (thanks Tinkster) I have been exploring last -x reboot and have found that the reported duration is incorrect for the last reboot and shutdown when a old wtmp file is used. Not having a record for the following shutdown, last assumes that the system has been up until the current time and similarly for the shutdown.
The output comes in time order, latest first, each line showing the time of the reboot and the uptime from then to shutdown. Using last -x reboot shutdown to show the shutdown time, here's an illustration
Code:
shutdown system down 2.6.29.6-smp Sun Mar 7 15:35 - 03:02 (11:27)
reboot system boot 2.6.29.6-smp Sun Mar 7 09:35 (05:59)
09:35 until 15:35 is 05:59.
When the uptime exceeds 24 hours it is shown as (<days>+<hours:minutes) like this
Code:
shutdown system down 2.6.29.6-smp Sun Feb 21 12:39 - 13:20 (00:40)
reboot system boot 2.6.29.6-smp Sat Feb 20 09:39 (1+02:59)
09:39 until 12:39 the next day is 1 day 02:59.
The time in parentheses at the end of the shutdown lines is normally the time until the next shutdown.
So far so good. The incorrect output is for the last reboot and shutdown of an old wtmp file. Here's the output of last /var/log/wtmp -x reboot shutdown; last -f /var/log/wtmp.1 -x reboot shutdown
Code:
[snip]
reboot system boot 2.6.29.6-smp Fri Mar 12 07:42 (01:54)
shutdown system down 2.6.29.6-smp Fri Mar 12 01:31 - 09:37 (08:05)
wtmp begins Thu Mar 11 08:25:26 2010
[snip]
reboot system boot 2.6.29.6-smp Wed Mar 10 14:12 (15+01:42)
shutdown system down 2.6.29.6-smp Wed Mar 10 12:41 - 15:54 (15+03:13)
[snip]
The boot started at "Wed Mar 10 14:12" which had an actual uptime of 1 day 11:20 is reported as 15 days 03:13 which is the time from then until the last -f /var/log/wtmp.1 -x reboot shutdown command was issued. The time from shutdown to shutdown is similarly affected.

I did a live upgrade from 11.3 KDE and observe a following issue.When I press the shutdown button on the laptop it initiates the shutdown and shuts down fine but after a significant delay of time (something like 30 seconds). When I click the shutdown button in KDE it initiates the shutdown instantly. This was not the case in 11.3 where the shutdown worked the same regardless of the method that triggered it

I'm new to Ubuntu and have spent several days trying to make a few simple alterations to my Myth 9.10 installation. My biggest task was to get the MCE "power" and "start" buttons working, which they now are - sort of.
The problem is with the shutdown command that the power button activates seems to be different to the shutdown command from the taskbar shutdown menu i.e. when I switch off the computer with the remote it restarts with the "recovery" menu as it wasn't shutdown properly. Same thing happens with the shutdown command from a terminal window. Shutting off from the desktop menu is fine.

is there any possibilities to cancel ?shutdown process if yes then how?
one more question: how a computer know that i have to shutdown if a user fire shutdown or init 0(just want to know the actual shutdown process what files the shutdown process calls and how it prevents a user to login (over the network)while shutting down.)

Right Now I'm using hdparm command in unix to shut down the hard disk but there are few issues with it.
when it wakes back up it consumes
lots power. Is there any other way
to do it?
Many times when I put my
hard disk to sleep, I can see few
bursts at the beginning and then
after a while it goes to sleep. I
think its because of the journaling
system in ubuntu (which I use) Have
anybody encountered that?
What would
be the best linux/unix operating
system (eg: ubuntu/centos/redhat) to
work on extensive hard disk
operations?

after installing linux mint 7, I have been getting one beep on shutdown, a google search on this came back as a ram problem...but then i ran across a bunch of posts on ubuntu forums about one beep on shutdown, with an older version of ubuntu, grep does return some paramter errors, but in the mint bug report page those are listed as : benign ignore. it doen't bother me in the least, as long as it isn't a warning of impending hardware failure.

I'm running Ubuntu server 8.04.3 with eBox on a Dell GX280. I want to power off my box automatically every night, so as root I added a crontab entry "05 1 * * * /sbin/shutdown -P now". The command runs on schedule but most days the PC goes into a coma instead of powering off. It doesn't respond to key presses or mouse movement or Ctrl-Alt-Delete, I have to push its power button to complete the shutdown. I have tried a variety of alternatives such as "/sbin/shutdown -h" and "runlevel 0", they all behave the same way

Is there a way to run a prompt at logout or shutdown? I added the following code to .bash_logout, but apparently the �read� command doesn't work from there.
Code:
echo "Make a backup now? (y)"
read answer
if [ "$answer" != "y" ]
then
echo "Backup aborted."

It looks like the -t parameter is no longer available when using the shutdown command. What I'm trying to figure out is how to send all the daemons the kill signal, but wait a certain amount of time before actually halting or rebooting. I can't be the only one wanting to do this, but for all the searching I'm doing I can't find an answer.The following only warns, then waits 1 minute before sending the kill signal and immediately halting, correct? Or am I getting this completely wrong?
Code:# shutdown -h +1

why a script is not being executed during shutdown. I have a script in 'init.d' that works properly from command line. It also works fine at boot. My problem is that it does not execute at all on shutdown. I am using all the standard rc.d stuff for the script. Here are my LSB tags:
Code:
### BEGIN INIT INFO
# Provides: setwebpage
# Required-Start: $network httpd
[code]....
When I check the rc?.d directories, the appropriate links are there with the proper NN. This script has to FTP a couple of files to a remote server so the network is required and the script should be run very early in the shutdown process. However, the first thing the script does is send a message via 'logger' indicating it is executing with the 'start' or 'stop' parameter. The 'stop' message never shows up in the log thus I have to conclude that it simply is never executed.

I have a habit of watching videos when I go to sleep. So I decided to start using, for example, the following when I laid down:
sudo shutdown -h -P 60
Of course this shuts down the computer in an hour. I was wondering if there was a way I could get the computer to beep a few times for the last 10 Minutes and then a few more times for the last 5 minutes?

I'm running Ubuntu 10.04, and I like to logout or shutdown or restart my system with system->shutdown just as in Fedora, but it's not there. How can I add this, the only way that I have been using is through the terminal or Crtl-Alt-D, which doesn't has Logout option but Hibernate.

I have installed Fedora 15 Alpha with GNOME 3. Everything is working fine. However, I can't see any option to hibernate or shutdown.
In the top panel when I click my user name, I only have one option and that is to suspend. Normally I like to hibernate or shutdown. And I can't see any option of what to do when I close my netbook. Normally, I prefer to hibernate.
