[systemd-devel] Debugging systemd shutdown problem on openSuSE 12.3

[Rainer Krienke]

Hello,

I i trouble on a openSuSE 12.3 system that is using autofs to mount
users home directories and other shares. The system basically works fine.

When I try to shut down or reboot the system sometimes this works, but
most of the time the system terminates kdm and other processes (eg ssh
access no longer works then) but it won't reboot or turn power off in
case of shutdown.

I added
systemd.log_level=debug systemd.log_target=kmsg log_buf_len=1M
systemd.sysv_console=1
to the kernel command line and created a debug.sh file

#!/bin/sh
mount -o remount,rw /
dmesg > /shutdown-log.txt
mount -o remount,ro /

in /usr/lib/systemd/system-shutdown. Once I found a /shutdown-log.txt
log file but it did not contain any real hint for me why rebooting seems
to hang.

The problem is that I do not see what is hanging. How can I get better
debugging results from systemd to find out more? Is it possible to
redirect all steps systemd makes when rebooting to a virtual tty? What
else could I do to get more information of what happens during
reboot/shutdown?

Any ideas?

You can download the shutdown-log.txt file that was created on a reboot
that did not succeed here:
