Thanks for that!

My current test environment is an ESXi as a virtual machine in VM Server 1. Just the host, no additional VMs on it - so nothing that needs a shutdown there. I tried to shut down the host without maintenance mode but always get a message like "operation not supported in current state" (sorry I dont have the exact wording as a I'm not in the office anymore). Once I switch to maintenance mode the exact same command does shut down:

hostops.pl --username root --operation shutdown --url --target_host localhost.localdomain --suspend 1

Do you think I need a different command or tool? To be honest, I'm a bit lost with all these different tools and their different names with every new version.

Markus
