    Problem Symptoms:
    When system is shut down, this message appears:

    Shutdown did not complete: the following processes are still running
    2626 ? S 0:00 /exlibris/aleph/a20_1/aleph/exe/lib_batch VIR01
    3175 ? S 0:00 /exlibris/aleph/a20_1/aleph/exe/lib_batch ABC30
    3454 ? S 0:00 /exlibris/aleph/a20_1/aleph/exe/lib_batch ABC50

    If aleph_startup is run, followed by aleph_shutdown, the same messages appear.

    Cause:
    Running processes are preventing the shutdown from completing.

    Resolution:
    1. Do aleph_shutdown.
    2. Kill the processes that are reported running.

    Example: :

    Shutdown did not complete: the following processes are still running
    2626 ? S 0:00 /exlibris/aleph/a20_1/aleph/exe/lib_batch VIR01
    3175 ? S 0:00 /exlibris/aleph/a20_1/aleph/exe/lib_batch ABC30
    3454 ? S 0:00 /exlibris/aleph/a20_1/aleph/exe/lib_batch ABC50

    kill those processes, that is:

    > kill -9 2626 3175 3454

    (This can be done as the aleph user)

    3. Run aleph_startup, followed by aleph_shutdown.
