Problems with 16" MBP - Big Sur 11.3 beta - kernel panic

Running 11.3 beta 8.
System hangs on shutdown (usually takes 4.5/5 minutes)
This has been happening for a while (at least since Big Sur 11.1).
Booted to recovery and ran first aid on all partitions.
Only received errors on Macintosh HD - Data:

1) "Unable to read apfs keylocker ranges". Is this a problem?
2) Are the cross check mismatch errors something that can be 'fixed' with first aid? I've booted to recovery mode, ran first aid 3 times, errors persist.

I have Apple Care (and backups). Wanting to know if this indicates I should replace my internal HD?

Thank you.
Welp,

This was requested to be moved to this forum (from the discussions.apple.com forum) due to the 'beta' issues.
Kernel panics continue today on the release version of 11.3.

ProductName: macOS
ProductVersion: 11.3
BuildVersion: 20E232

I'll ignore this thread, and reopen the issue with Apple Support.

Two points here:

  1. The keylocker ranges warning should be harmless.
  2. The cross check mismatch warnings (which are also mostly harmless) are repairable, but you need to run First Aid (in Recovery) against the entire APFS container, not just the volume. In Disk Utility press ⌘2 then select the container that this volume belongs to.

Having said that, none of this should be in any way related to your shutdown hangs.
