Thanks Andrew, I'll try this workaround tomorrow for sure. But reading
though that bug report (closed not a bug) it states that the problem should
only arise if something is not releasing a sanlock lease. So if we've
entered Global Maintenance and shut down Engine, the question is what's
holding the lease?

How can that be debugged?
