    script to shutdown VM on power button press

    Hi. I use Mac vm (no guest agent). My idea is that when I press power button proxmox could send shutdown command to OSX via ssh. This would should allow to close mac vm gracefully. I am not sure what is happening now, but I have a feeling that mac simply sees it as yanking the cable off the...
