If you are trying to shut a VM down to check/change a setting then you need to place the VM in maintenance mode. That will prevent it from being powered back on. Once you are done just exit maintenance mode on the VM and it will be powered on by the connection server.</P></BODY></HTML> Mon, 04 Jun 2018 02:57:16 GMT BenFB 2018-06-04T02:57:16Z How to disable VDI to power On automatically https://communities.vmware.com/t5/Horizon-Desktops-and-Apps/How-to-disable-VDI-to-power-On-automatically/m-p/1400956#M81957 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Hello,</P><P></P><P>We have a view environment with floating and non-floating VMs. I tried to shutdown them down but every time but after shutdown they power on automatically.

You can change the setting to power off, suspend, Take no action and Ensure Powered on. If you need to have a number of machines at the ready, you will want to go to the Provisioning tab and change the number of spare powered on vm's.</P><P></P><P><span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper" image-alt="pastedImage_0.png"><img src="https://communities.vmware.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/1017i7776F46DB5B54922/image-size/large?v=v2&amp;px=999" role="button" title="pastedImage_0.png" alt="pastedImage_0.png" /></span></P><P><span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper" image-alt="pastedImage_1.png"><img src="https://communities.vmware.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/1019i9B59D361A5C21121/image-size/large?v=v2&amp;px=999" role="button" title="pastedImage_1.png" alt="pastedImage_1.png" /></span></P></BODY></HTML> Fri, 01 Jun 2018 18:04:05 GMT https://communities.vmware.com/t5/Horizon-Desktops-and-Apps/How-to-disable-VDI-to-power-On-automatically/m-p/1400957#M81958 pslaughter 2018-06-01T18:04:05Z Re: How to disable VDI to power On automatically https://communities.vmware.com/t5/Horizon-Desktops-and-Apps/How-to-disable-VDI-to-power-On-automatically/m-p/1400958#M81959 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>This is a result of the power policy configuration on the pool.
