Hello as900w​,

Try this (or specify the device name if you know it):

eject /dev/cdrom/mpx.*

I thought eject was default, "reboot --noeject" to prevent it.

I want to eject CD.

If setting noeject, the CD will keep in CD-ROM.

This is my understand.

But have you actually tried it with only specifying the reboot command?

It's my understanding that the CD-ROM tray is always ejected when the host is rebooted during an ESXi install, unless the "--noeject" switch is set.

So as Daphnisov asks, did you try "reboot" on its own?
