Hi There,

My Solaris installation takes a long time to shut down (it seems to be inordinately long).

Here's what I do:

 1. Log in as myself
 2. su -
 3. shutdown -g0 -i5 -y

X stops almost straight away and then my machine just "does nothing". Eventually, I'm told that the CDE Login service has failed to start and to do svcs -xv to work out what's wrong [not a very useful message given that I have no way to do anything durin shutdown].

It seems to take in excess of a minute to actually get to the poweroff stage. Once the machine starts to poweroff (syslogd gets a signal), the machine shuts down within about 5 seconds.

What's the easiest way to get Solaris to be really verbose about what it's doing as it shuts down so that I can better report or work out where the delay is?

SunOS orthanc 5.11 opensol-20061023 i86pc i386 i86pc

The system is BFU'ed from an Open Solaris ON consolidation.
