Hi All,

I have a quick question on Linux reboot:

On my system I have /var/core directory created which has 300G space and if I fill the /var/core with files say upto 290G and reboot the system and after it comes up and delete the files in /var/core and try to reboot the system takes 45 mins before it actually reboots. Wondering if anyone has seen this before and what could be the issue?
