If yes, please remove it from AD and then see if there are any other users added locally. Check whether now the problem occurs or not. This way we can check whether its by a user or because of something else. Also, try changing the root password as well if you have had it shared with someone. Although, I suspect this could be because of some policies, but these tests will prove it.</P></BODY></HTML> Thu, 03 May 2012 10:18:45 GMT https://communities.vmware.com/t5/ESXi-Discussions/2008-r2-vm-auto-shutdown-by-user/m-p/2591450#M242827 saurabhbhattach 2012-05-03T10:18:45Z Re: 2008 r2 vm auto shutdown by user? https://communities.vmware.com/t5/ESXi-Discussions/2008-r2-vm-auto-shutdown-by-user/m-p/2591451#M242828 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P> no adding to AD and no other users but me.</P></BODY></HTML> Thu, 03 May 2012 10:27:01 GMT https://communities.vmware.com/t5/ESXi-Discussions/2008-r2-vm-auto-shutdown-by-user/m-p/2591451#M242828 linglong768 2012-05-03T10:27:01Z Re: 2008 r2 vm auto shutdown by user? https://communities.vmware.com/t5/ESXi-Discussions/2008-r2-vm-auto-shutdown-by-user/m-p/2591452#M242829 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>After how much time all these VMs are getting powered off?</P></BODY></HTML> Thu, 03 May 2012 10:50:47 GMT https://communities.vmware.com/t5/ESXi-Discussions/2008-r2-vm-auto-shutdown-by-user/m-p/2591452#M242829 saurabhbhattach 2012-05-03T10:50:47Z Re: 2008 r2 vm auto shutdown by user? https://communities.vmware.com/t5/ESXi-Discussions/2008-r2-vm-auto-shutdown-by-user/m-p/2591453#M242830 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Are there more entrys in the windows event log?</P><P>Frank </P></BODY></HTML> Thu, 03 May 2012 11:00:38 GMT https://communities.vmware.com/t5/ESXi-Discussions/2008-r2-vm-auto-shutdown-by-user/m-p/2591453#M242830 JimKnopf99 2012-05-03T11:00:38Z Re: 2008 r2 vm auto shutdown by user? https://communities.vmware.com/t5/ESXi-Discussions/2008-r2-vm-auto-shutdown-by-user/m-p/2591454#M242831 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Are there any other events regarding ESXi host like loosing connecting to storage and NIC down alert?</P></BODY></HTML> Thu, 03 May 2012 12:11:17 GMT https://communities.vmware.com/t5/ESXi-Discussions/2008-r2-vm-auto-shutdown-by-user/m-p/2591454#M242831 aravinds3107 2012-05-03T12:11:17Z Re: 2008 r2 vm auto shutdown by user? https://communities.vmware.com/t5/ESXi-Discussions/2008-r2-vm-auto-shutdown-by-user/m-p/2591455#M242832 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P> 1-2 hours</P></BODY></HTML> Thu, 03 May 2012 13:34:08 GMT https://communities.vmware.com/t5/ESXi-Discussions/2008-r2-vm-auto-shutdown-by-user/m-p/2591455#M242832 linglong768 2012-05-03T13:34:08Z Re: 2008 r2 vm auto shutdown by user? https://communities.vmware.com/t5/ESXi-Discussions/2008-r2-vm-auto-shutdown-by-user/m-p/2591456#M242833 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>just using local storage. nic work fine!</P><P>i think i maybe windows edtion problem. all windows 2008 r2 are ok,but windows 2008 r2 sp1 will auto power off..... </P></BODY></HTML> Thu, 03 May 2012 13:39:47 GMT https://communities.vmware.com/t5/ESXi-Discussions/2008-r2-vm-auto-shutdown-by-user/m-p/2591456#M242833 linglong768 2012-05-03T13:39:47Z Re: 2008 r2 vm auto shutdown by user? https://communities.vmware.com/t5/ESXi-Discussions/2008-r2-vm-auto-shutdown-by-user/m-p/2591457#M242834 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Any erros on VM vmware.log files.</P><P></P><P>Follow the <A href="http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&amp;cmd=displayKC&amp;externalId=1019064">KB</A> for troubleshooting</P></BODY></HTML> Thu, 03 May 2012 14:19:55 GMT https://communities.vmware.com/t5/ESXi-Discussions/2008-r2-vm-auto-shutdown-by-user/m-p/2591457#M242834 aravinds3107 2012-05-03T14:19:55Z Re: 2008 r2 vm auto shutdown by user? https://communities.vmware.com/t5/ESXi-Discussions/2008-r2-vm-auto-shutdown-by-user/m-p/2591458#M242835 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Hi,</P><P></P><P>I think this is related to Windows 2008 R2 Server license issue.
