Installed on new HW - no shutdown anymore

  • Hi everyone.


    I had OMV installed for a long time on a sff 1 liter acer n4630g and all worked well but i wanted a new setup do be able to do hw encode in jellyfin.

    So i installed latest stable omv on a MSI B250 mobo with a I3 7100.

    I have the bios updated to the latest version.


    What is weird is that on this new system shutdown does not work correctly anymore.

    On selecting shutdown from the webui, it stops spinning the hdd but fans, leds, etc stay on.

    In this state, if i long press the power button it turns completely off and after 2-3 sec it turns back on again ...

    I have to unplug from the mains tot turn it off.


    Short pressing the power button while the unit is on does nothing ....


    Mobo info:

    Doing a shutdown -h now from local terminal does shutdown correctly the system.

    Can anyone help me figure this out ?


    Thanks.

    Doing a shutdown -h now from local terminal does shutdown correctly the system.

    Tried shutdown -h now from WeTTY.

    It did not shut down completely ...

  • shutdown -h now

    Why the -h flag on the command?

    There's only -H that leaves the system halted.


    Use only the now instruction or a timed value and see how it works

    Why the -h flag on the command?

    -h means --poweroff. I always use shutdown -h now when shutting down a system. OMV uses systemctl poweroff when you use the shutdown in the web interface.

  • Also tried on local tty systemctl poweroff and the system did not shut down completely.

    Is there something, some tool, i can try to debug this ?

    Almost has to be a setting in your bios. Watching a monitor plugged into the system when shutting down is the easiest way to maybe get more info. Otherwise, look into your bios settings.

  • I've searched the bios and only thing i found in relation with power management was ERP which has no effect on the issue if it's enabled or disabled.

    Search the log for error messages related to power settings. It might help if you find anything. Look at the part where the system boots up.

  • I have looked at dmesg and there are no errors or warnings.

    Same for journalctl --list-boots and journalctl -b -1

    There are no errors or warnings for ACPI ....


    journalctl -b -1 says at the end it reached target shutdown, all is off, all is fine.

    Except it's not completely off.


    So if it's a bios issue there are no settings to toggle ...

    The only infuriating thing is that Windows worked (of course) perfectly.
