Seems like your syslogd has an open file in that file system, and stopping 
the service results in that file system getting umounted.

Finding the exact solution would require a peek at your syslogd and cluster 
configs.

gfs filesystems don't get unmounted when a service stops (since the other 
cluster member(s) can mount the same filesystem simultaneously). Other file 
systems get umounted when the service stops, and any processes holding on to 
the file system get killed.
