Clovis,
Please, try with vmphalt too.
root=LABEL=/ vmpoff=LOGOFF vmphalt=LOGOFF BOOT_IMAGE=0
Thanks for the suggestion. I tried that and there was no difference:
# cat /proc/cmdline
cat /proc/cmdline
root=LABEL=/ vmpoff=LOGOFF vmphalt=LOGOFF BOOT_IMAGE=0
# halt
halt
That should be vmhalt, not vmphalt. The reason vmpoff didn't work the
first time is that '/sbin/halt' halts the system without doing a true
poweroff instruction (thus leaving the system halted but on), whereas
'/sbin/poweroff' does a halt+poweroff. 'shutdown -h now' does a
poweroff also, which is why that worked the 2nd time.
If you have vmpoff=LOGOFF vmhalt=LOGOFF, you have all your bases
covered. Any time the system halts, it'll logoff, regardless of whether
you run the command to perform an actual poweroff.

Broadcast message from root (console) (Fri Aug 14 12:01:52 2009):
The system is going down for system halt NOW!
...
00: HCPGSP2629I The virtual machine is placed in CP mode due to a SIGP
stop from
CPU 01.
01: HCPGSP2630I The virtual machine is placed in CP mode due to a SIGP
stop and
store status from CPU 01.
The user ID remains logged on. Then I reboot and try a "shutdown -h now"
and the behavior is different (I naively thought that "halt" and "shutdown
-h now" were the same):
# shutdown -h now
...
And in fact the system does get logged off
Then I reboot again and go to MAINT and do a:
==> signal shutdown rh5rwmnt
And I see the system go down on the 3270 session, however it does not
logoff, it goes to disabled wait:
01: HCPGSP2629I The virtual machine is placed in CP mode due to a SIGP
stop from
CPU 01.
00: HCPGIR450W CP entered; disabled wait PSW 00020001 80000000 00000000
00000FFF
Back on MAINT I see:
HCPSIG2113I User RH5RWMNT has reported successful termination
However, the user ID remains running:
q rh5rwmnt
RH5RWMNT -L0006
So now I'm even more confused. But something does not seem to be working
correctly.
