I also met such situation in our db on linux 6.2. It's just like this:

When i issue shutdown immediate, it just hangs there, seems have a lot of work to finish.
after long long time waiting, i have to ctrl c quit and use startup force. The db startup quickly, works fine and seems nothing wrong takes place.

I guess we have no choice but issue startup force or shutdown abort if under such situation.
