[Bug 1447038] Re: Shutdown/Restart of live session guest does not work in Virtualbox, and VMWare

[Phill Whiteside]

it also occurs on bare metal. It seems to be a race issue where a process
is starting before the previous one has things settled. But, it is pain so
we do need a geek to agree to look at it and we minions provide logs and
testing to them. I'm up for being a minion  :)
