[arm-allstar] Problems after system update

Chris,

 I have not seen this in anything here and no one has reported it but I am
interested in what is going on.

 These two things seem to be related to the allstar.env file and the
rc.allstar file in /usr/local/etc.  We do not touch the allstar.env file in
updates but we can modify the rc.allstar file in updates. However we have
not recently. Users should not change the rc.allstar file.

The ip address executes this statement -

/usr/local/sbin/sayip.sh $NODE1

Try doing this at the Linux prompt and see if you hear it?

By default the shutdown, etc. statements in rpt.conf are commented.

B1=cmd,/usr/local/sbin/halt.sh 1998             ; Halt the system (linux
total shutdown)

This says if you DTMF *B1 it will call halt.sh with a node parameter. The
node parameter has to be correct in order for the voice confirmation to
work. Again you can run halt.sh manually and see if that works.

Again the shutdown monitor is nothing more than a background script running
-

 # Shutdown Monitor, RP2/3 Only
if [ "$HWTYPE" = "RPi2" ] && [ "$SHUTDOWN_MONITOR" = "enabled" ] ; then
    /usr/local/sbin/shutdown_monitor.sh & > /dev/null
fi

To detemine if it is loaded after a boot do

ps ax | grep [s]hutdown

If nothing is returned it is not running.
