It shouldn't execute /etc/rc.shutdown:

shutdown(8):

-h      The system is halted at the specified time when shutdown executes
        halt(8).

halt(8) is a link to reboot(8), and it acts like reboot, i.e.
explicitly send init(8) SIGTSTP signal to prevent it from running
/etc/rc.shutdown.

There are two ways to shutdown your system gracefully:
1) Explicitly send init(8) SIGTERM signal (kill -15 1)
2) Run ``shutdown [time]'' without specifying -h -r -p switches.
