I tried the button 'shutdown' in admin web ui and ssh shell command 'shutdown -t 0' and 'reboot', all do not work. they just shutdown all vm and lxc but not shut down proxmox server.

how to shutdown proxmox?
 
Did you have VMs running that needed a long time to shutdown?

Possible reasons for that are:
Guest Agent enabled in the VMs Options but not installed.
If Guest Agent is not enabled, the VM might ignore the ACPI commands to shutdown.
