Shutting down a Virtual Machine using PowerCLI

Read Original

This technical tutorial explains how to properly shut down a VMware virtual machine's guest OS using PowerCLI's Shutdown-VMGuest command. It provides a script example that not only initiates the shutdown but also includes a loop to wait for the VM to reach a 'PoweredOff' state before continuing, which is essential for automation workflows.
