I've got a fresh CentOS 7 test machine, fully patched. The command:
shutdown -h now
surprisingly does not halt the machine. Instead it reboots it. WTF?
I found the following Debian discussion which seems to be the same
issue: <https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=766338>
However, removing kexec-tools in this case did not solve the problem.
Nor does "systemctl poweroff" work.
Does anyone else see this? No, nothing is filed in bugzilla yet.

The workaround is a line for i in /sys/bus/usb/devices/*/power/control ; do echo on > $i ; done in /etc/rc.local . Unfortunately this prevents powersaving of all USB ports/hubs. What didn't work: I created /usr/lib/systemd/system/stopusb.service with [Unit] Description=Power-on USB in prep for shutdown [Service] Type=oneshot ExecStart=/bin/sh -c "for i in /sys/bus/usb/devices/*/power/control ; do echo on > \$i ; done" ExecStop=/bin/sh -c "for i in /sys/bus/usb/devices/*/power/control ; do echo on > \$i ; done" RemainAfterExit=yes [Install] WantedBy=poweroff.target but this seems to have no effect. Maybe the "poweroff" target does not really exist. I think someone more experienced with systemd could fix this. HTH, Kay

Answering Devin Reade <gdr at gno.org> (Thu, 15 Jan 2015 21:05:12 -0700): Hi!> I've got a fresh CentOS 7 test machine, fully patched. The command: > shutdown -h now > surprisingly does not halt the machine. Instead it reboots it. WTF?Maybe it helps to poweroff explicitly? shutdown -hP now I had the same problem on SUSE machines.
