Qubes takes a while to shut down (>30min!), is this normal?

[throwaw...@tutanota.com]

Hello everyone! =)

Usually when I update dom0 and then I shutdown the computer it takes quiet a while to finish, the progress bar reaches the end after nearly 5 min, but then it takes 30min (yes!) for it to completely shut down.

For info: When I click on Esc to see what happens after the progress bar reaches the end I see:

[ OK ] Reached target Shutdown

I have a Sony VAIO with a C2D.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Kind regards.

This is a known bug afaik. It would seem that some of the mounted block devices are hanging before they can be properly unmounted. You can see this when you hit any of the F keys during shutdown.

I wonder if there's a ticket?

seems like diff bug. I have the one where it will get hung unmounting a /tmp device or something. stuck on stop jobs back and forth between 1 of 2 forever. The work around for this is to shut down all vms before shutting down the pc. All the ones that don't start on boot is good enough on my machine.

But for it to freeze on reached target shutdown is weird. Sounds like another issue.

That one is here: https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-issues/issues/1826

To clarify, you're saying "freeze on reached target shutdown" sounds
like it is *not* #1581?

This was something that I experienced previously, but after updating the kernel (to 4.4.31) and xen(to 4.6.3-24) packages in dom0, it seemed to go away somehow.
