Hi,
I have a cluster with 3 nodes. on node02 I have a VM with Windows OS (HA state - none).
Then I set node in maintenance mode, VM still on this node, automatic migration don't starting.

P.S. on another node then VM has "HA State - started", automatic migration present when I set "maintenance mode"

Thanks,
Oleg.

Expected behavior, as shown in the docs:
Maintenance Mode
You can use the manual maintenance mode to mark the node as unavailable for HA operation, prompting all services managed by HA to migrate to other nodes.
 
So, how can I setup HA mode for VM for automatic migration to another node? and can normally shutdown VM ?
when I set "Request state: started" I can't normally shutdown Vm from OS
AFAIK you can't. You will have to set ha-manager set vm:<VMID> --state stopped before the shutdown command issued in the VM to shutdown & not have it restarted.
