It is hard to tell because I do not get the shutdown mesages most of the 
time. The screen just goes blank and then re-boots. It went down badly the 
first time after my yum update but after that it seems to be okay as I do 
not get and lost clusters being deleted at boot time. When I do get messages 
I have noticed that network manager fails to shut down properly often.
