command to reboot a VM

[vmb01]

I need to reboot a VM started in the recovery site.

So in this VM i've insetreted a POST POWER ON STEP, type COMMAND ON RECOVERED VM and the content is:

shutdown /r /t 5 /f

The syntax of the command is correct, I've tested it! But when I run the test of the recovery plan I get:

Error - The command 'shutdown /r /t 5 /f ' returned a non-zero value: 21.

Any idea?

Hello vmb01,

this should work:

C:\Windows\System32\shutdown.exe /r /t 5 /f || exit 0

Regards,
