NO LOGINS!

Hi,

I tried to execute init 6 on my server. I got no response so I tried to use "shutdown". I used the following command: shutdown -y -g30 -i6 "The system is being rebooted". After five minutes the systeme has still not rebooted. However when a user (other than root) trys to login, the following message is displayed "NO LOGINS. The system is being going down in 30 seconds. The system is being rebooted". However this message has been displayed for every user for the last hour and fifteen minutes! There are no messages in the /var/adm/messages file. Can someone please tell me what is going on and how the fix it. Thanks

Hi When you give a shutdown command , in /etc there is a file created called nologin which will prevent users form login to system. If init 6 adn shutdown doest work try fastboot/fasthalt command.And remove the nologin file from /etc.Mohammed Sadiq

As for the time period, looks like init is trying to stop (or kill) a process. But the process won't die, therefore, holding up the remaining shutdown (or reboot) process. Take a look at the processes on the system and maybe you will see one (or maybe a few) that don't look "right". Look for processes with something like extended amounts of time accumulation, or maybe processes that *should* be running that are not.
