David,
The reboot was 3 hours later when the guest was manually brought up
after the corrupted filesystem was fixed. The last message received at
shutdown was :
Jun 7 02:02:48 zoracle2 syslog-ng[1780]: syslog-ng version 1.6.8 going
down
We did not have vmpoff=LOGOFF in the parm lines. The linux guests were
in a vm DSC status. We were not logged into any of them. I did notice
however that the guests were all logged off of vm once the vm
termination message was received.
Thanks, Bob

But your example shows a automatic reboot and the system trying to come
back up. Something else is wrong... do you specify vmpoff=LOGOFF in your
parm lines? You want the virtual machine to log off when it's done.
