[Bug 1464917] Re: reboot hangs at 'Reached target Shutdown'

[Danny Yates]

Since there hasn't been an answer for a month, I'll ask the question
again...

Is there any chance that this will be backported for Xenial? At the
moment, folks on an LTS release are struggling to cleanly shut their
machines down.

Title:
  reboot hangs at 'Reached target Shutdown'

Status in systemd:
  Invalid
Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  This bug is resolved.  Do not follow up to this bug.  Shutdown bugs
  are specific to the software installed and its configuration.  If you
  are experiencing a shutdown hang, please file a separate bug report
  and follow the debugging instructions described in the "Debugging
  boot/shutdown problems" section of
  /usr/share/doc/systemd/README.Debian.gz to check if there are any
  hanging jobs at shutdown. Capturing a screen photo of "journalctl -b"
  in the rescue shell might be enlightening.

  [Original report]
  I rebooted my 15.04 system, and found it hanging indefinitely at the plymouth shutdown screen.  Hitting esc to reveal the console showed a normal set of shutdown messages, ending with 'Reached target Shutdown' (paraphrased from memory).

  The system never rebooted on its own.  I had to use SysRq to finish
  the shutdown.
