I'm not sure what you're asking, as there is no question in your
message.
It may help you to know that in runlevels 0 and 6, the S* scripts are
run with the "stop" argument. In the other runlevels, the S* scripts are
run with the "start" argument. For all runlevels, K* scripts are run
with the "stop" argument.

Thank you Cameron, that does help me understand why they would have the
init.d/umount* as S* scripts in runlevel 0 and 6.
I am trying to understand the shutdown process, as our own custom setup
is failing to umount the local drive giving us "resource is busy" before
shutting down.
Hence my question is how does the shutdown process works, especially the
part where the unmounting is concerned?
Best,
Kailesh

If you have a test or non-production system with the hardware you are
looking at, how about opening a console window and playing around with
it?
You could add some diagnostic messages to some of the scripts if
you're not sure they're being called, and watch for your messages to
appear when you change runlevels.
One way to change your runlevels is using the telinit command
to go to runlevel 3
# telinit 3
or to go to runlevel 0
# telinit 0
BY THE WAY -- the # means a root prompt. You can get there by
activating root OR by using any of the several sudo tricks to imitate
it. (or you can prepend "sudo" to any of the lines above)

amendment -- don't do this at a console WINDOW -- go to a virtual
