    All of them at the same time, or separately?

    What are the guest OSes?

    What is your host hardware?

    I have seen unlicensed Windows GuestOS shutdown after a grace period of time.

    Not bad to check the vmware.log file inside the VM's directory (/vmfs/volumes/DatastoreName/yourVM) in duration of VM suddenly power-off issue. Then maybe you can find a clue of the issue ...
