> Hi. This isn't a show-stopper but I thought I'd ask if anyone has seen anything like this before. $ tcpip sh ver HP TCP/IP Services for OpenVMS Alpha Version V5.5 - ECO 1 on a COMPAQ AlphaServer DS20E 666 MHz running OpenVMS V8.2 $ During the early stage of a normalt shutdown (with automatic reboot), the system hangs for more or less exactly 5 minutes. The detached shutdown process is in QUEMAN.EXE and in LEF during this period. The queues are "stopped" as far as I could see. There was one queue in "stopped pending". This batch queue had one job in MUTEX (the reason for the reboot). But, I have seen this shutdown delay even without this MUTEX problem. I can still use MONITOR and the system is close to full idle during the delay. No CPU and no (or very few) I/O's. The rellevant part of the consol output is below. Only changed real node name into "zzzz".
