Hmm...
I have to try that .. and see what happens. It would be annoying though.
Half the time I use that laptop as a "head-less" machine, do a WOL, run things with redirected X11.. and when done, shut it down.
So it sounds like a combination of a linux issue, combined with a BIOS issue? The thing is, I tried that yesterday, I installed Centos 6, and it doesn't show that issue.
thanks!!

Can't shut it down, remotely, while in a docking station. Also, when in a docking station and using the laptops keyboard and LCD screen, and power down the laptop in RHEL/Centos, just results into a reboot. It does that with RHEL/Centos 7 and 8.
When I boot it with Centos 6, the behaviour is as expected, it just shuts down. So I guess this issue was "introduced" after Centos 6 somewhere?

Hello,
I have a laptop, in a docking station. When running RHEL/Centos 7 I could shut it down and power it off by using 'shutdown -h now' In did a new install of Centos 8 (and also RHEL 8) and when I do a "shutdown -h now" it just reboots (behaves the same as if I'd do a reboot).
Is that a known issue?
thanks,
Ron
We faced the same problem on one machine. We had to disable wake up on lan in bios settings. After that, the machine stayed shut down with the "poweroff" command.
