Interesting thread.. this helped thank you guys.


I had a situation as below :


A cluster of 3 ESX 4.1 in a data center and each data center has its own UPS


The requirement was to turn off HA first, smoot powerdown VMs and then power down host.



/etc/opt/init.d/vmware-aam shutdown ; vmware-cmd -l | while read i ; do vmware-cmd $i stop trysoft && /sbin/shutdown -hP now ; done

I run this and seen working well for me and on one of my customers machine.


Disclaimer : written as hobby neither VMware nor I are responsible for if any damages caused.


Hope it helps Smiley Happy
