[OpenAFS] fs process doesn't exit until I send a signal 9

    I had to shut down one of my AFS servers to replace a disk. When I 
issue a "bos shutdown" command, all the processes seem to shutdown, 
except for the fs process. When I "vos status" the server, it says that 
the fileserver has been disabled, and the sub-status is "in the process 
of shutting down". Is there something else I need to do. I only seem to 
be able to shut it down by using "killall -9 filserver" or "kill -9" the 
fileserver process number. This of course causes the volumes to be salvaged.
    Is there something else that I need to do? How long should it take 
to shutdown the fs process. I waited about 5 minutes before using "kill -9".

Below is /usr/afs/logs/BosLog after the vos shutdown command:
    Thu Feb 24 11:14:44 2005: fs:vol exited on signal 15
    Thu Feb 24 11:14:44 2005: upserver exited on signal 15
    Thu Feb 24 11:14:44 2005: buserver exited on signal 15
    Thu Feb 24 11:14:44 2005: vlserver exited on signal 15
    Thu Feb 24 11:14:44 2005: ptserver exited on signal 15
    Thu Feb 24 11:14:44 2005: kaserver exited on signal 15
    Thu Feb 24 11:19:12 2005: fs:file exited on signal 9

And also, the BosLog after a "bos restart fs"
    Thu Feb 24 11:32:22 2005: Server directory access is okay
    Thu Feb 24 11:37:16 2005: fs:salv exited with code 0
    Thu Feb 24 13:04:55 2005: fs:vol exited on signal 15
    Thu Feb 24 13:11:47 2005: fs:file exited on signal 9
    Thu Feb 24 13:17:28 2005: fs:salv exited with code 0
