I’ve had two server oses here: alma linux and debian(currently). On both of them, they will hang when I shut them down from cockpit, and they hang at the end of the shutdown.

Also, it takes an hour to a day to have this issue start. if it’s restarted two times in a row quickly, it works perfectly fine for some reason.

What I’ve tried:

  • setting “acpi=off” and “acpi=force” kernel parameters in grub
  • removing my nvidia gpu(i was using nouveau drivers)
  • changing distros

nothing worked. here are some things that both distros had in common with eachother:

  • systemd
  • cockpit
  • libvirt & qemu
  • docker

does anyone have advice? nothing i’ve seen online has worked. thank you for suggestions

    yeah journalctl logs show nothing relevant. I have disabled acpi and forced it(acpi=force), but that didn’t fix this. There are a lot of different combinations of acpi settings I could try:

    acpi=force noapic
nolapic
noapic
acpi_osi=“Linux”
acpi_osi=“Windows 2006”
acpi=ht
pci=noacpi
acpi=noirq
pnpacpi=off

    But I found these from a guy which they didn’t work on so I’m reluctant to try them.

      did you check it /proc/cmdline if the params were taken into account? perhaps you edited the config but didn’t update the initramfs

        Yes, I’ve always made sure to use update-grub and checked cmdline to make sure it has the correct parameters. Regardless of acpi=force or acpi=off, it would still hang.
