Handling Process
Stop the power management service acpid of the system.
To stop the power management service acpid of Red Hat Enterprise Linux
4.4 (32-bit and 64-bit) or CentOS 4.4 (32-bit and 64-bit), perform the
following steps:
1. On the Linux terminal, run the following command to stop the acpid service:
chkconfig acpid off
2. Restart the VM for the settings to take effect.
Root Cause
By
default, the power management module of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4.4
(32-bit and 64-bit) and CentOS 4.4 (32-bit and 64-bit) is loaded during
the kernel startup. However, the module of a lower Linux Kernel version
has defects, which cause the VM to possibly fail to shut down.
