I have the following in "/etc/init/control-alt-delete.conf" and it works as a
halt, not a restart.
start on control-alt-delete
exec /sbin/shutdown -r now "Control-Alt-Delete pressed"

Subject: EXTERNAL: Rhel 6.4 signal shutdown not working.
Hello Listers,
I am working on upgrading our gold image from V5.8 to V6.4. One of the
issues I have hit is that I think I have everything set up to handle a signal
shutdown, but the 6.4 instance does not acknowledge that it has been received.
I have set up signal
On the VM side: signal is enabled for the guest ID, and when issued, shows
the signal in process:
08:44:29 JBARNE8 0043 VMYINI0019R Enter: q signals
08:44:29 JBARNE8 0043
Signalled Timeout
08:44:29 JBARNE8 0043 Userid Signal Signal Status
By Remaining
08:44:29 JBARNE8 0043 MFSL8009 SHUTDOWN Enabled
- -
08:54:13 JBARNE8 0045
Signalled Timeout
08:54:13 JBARNE8 0045 Userid Signal Signal Status
By Remaining
08:54:13 JBARNE8 0045 MFSL8009 SHUTDOWN Processing
OPERATOR 893
If I let it timeout, it will force the mfsl8009 userid.
On the linux side: I have updated /etc/init/control-alt-delete.conf
changing the r to h.
start on control-alt-delete
exec /sbin/shutdown -h now "Control-Alt-Delete pressed"
Looking through console log and /var/log/messages and any other log I can think
of, I never see any sign of the signal being received.
I am probably missing something obvious, but not sure what it is. All V5
linux systems shutdown without problem when signaled.
Any ideas?
