Daemons Are Hung or Busy
The ACFS replication daemons might be actively processing replication tasks or have become unresponsive, preventing a clean shutdown.

⚠️
Underlying OS or Resource Issues
System-level problems such as low memory, CPU contention, or other hung OS processes can interfere with the graceful termination of ACFS daemons.
⚠️
ACFS/ASM Configuration Inconsistencies
Misconfigurations within ACFS or ASM, or inconsistencies in the replication setup, can lead to daemons failing to respond to stop commands.
