Hello list, This is odd - I'm having a RHEL 6.2 system die on shutdown while trying to shut down the loopback interface:
Shutting down system logger: Ý OK ¨ Shutting down interface eth0: Ý OK ¨ Shutting down loopback interface: Ý OK ¨ INFO: task vgs:2171 blocked for more than 120 seconds.

Just a bit more info - I did add an eth1 using a 2nd NIC to another VSWITCH with no OSA (for a "private interconnect"). Not sure if that's pertinent, but I believe it started after I added that. Also, this is a clone - the golden image does not die like this. After reIPLing, here's the output of ifconfig and uname -a: [root@lnxsa2 ~]# ifconfig eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 02:00:00:00:00:61 inet addr:9.12.7.4 Bcast:9.12.15.255 Mask:255.255.240.0 inet6 addr: fe80::ff:fe00:61/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:164 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:73 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:14119 (13.7 KiB) TX bytes:10514 (10.2 KiB) eth1 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 02:00:00:00:00:62 inet addr:10.1.1.4 Bcast:10.1.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 inet6 addr: fe80::ff:fe00:62/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:27 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:0 (0.0 b) TX bytes:3993 (3.8 KiB) lo Link encap:Local Loopback inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:0 (0.0 b) TX bytes:0 (0.0 b) [root@lnxsa2 ~]# uname -a Linux lnxsa2.itso.ibm.com 2.6.32-220.el6.s390x #1 SMP Wed Nov 9 08:20:08 EST 2011 s390x s390x s390x GNU/Linux (Hmm, now I halt a second time and it shuts down normally - strange.) It has the undesired effect of the virtual machine not logging off on halt :(( Any help will be appreciated "Mike MacIsaac" <mikemac at-sign us.ibm.com> ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@vm.marist.edu with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For more information on Linux on System z, visit http://wiki.linuxvm.org/
