Public bug reported:
Hi,
Sysvinit (2.96-7) includes a shutdown version (/sbin/shutdown) that
contains a bug not present in previous versions of shutdown
It affects to QEMU VMs, like Proxmox, for example, that cannot be
shutdown from console.
Basically, to shutdown QEMU-Guest-Agent issues the command
/sbin/shutdown -h -P +0
but /sbin/shutdown refuses to work when -h and -P are present at the
same time, although its help says explicitly that "-P can only be used
with -h flag".
Older versions of shutdown work correctly!! and /sbin/shutdown -h -P +0
shutdown the machine as expected.
Regards,
Pedreter.
