Re: What would cause a PWRDWNSYS to hang on D6000298 for 10 t0 20 minutes.

As Larry and Steve pointed out that's storage management shutting down and
the first part of that is to write everything in memory to disk. Since
that is the hosted partition now your fighting I/O from the host as well as
the client. If the host is busy at all, it just has to wait.

Usually that's storage management shutting down. Is that partition hosting
anything?
