Cannot Login : System is booting up

If you get the following message when trying to log in:

System is booting up. See pam_nologin(8)

The quick fix is to remove the nologin file so that authentication will go through.

# cat /var/run/nologin
"System is booting up. See pam_nologin(8)"
# rm /var/run/nologin

I'm still trying to find a real solution to this issue though. Why is this file being made and why isn't it being removed?
