hi there,

I have a machine that I regularly shutdown and so far the startup/shutdown sequence always seems to work:

on boot of host all vms and containers get started
on shutdown of host all vms and containers get shutdown and I see a task appear.

until recently, now I see:
on boot of host all vms and containers get started
on shutdown of host, the host just instantly shutsdown, but doesn't seem to shutdown vms and containers in reverse order anymore.

I can't seem to find any breaking changes or other change of the default so leaves me wonder what happened? its almost asif the shutdown hook doesn't invoke the shutdown script anymore?
 
windows server guest vms?

set a group policy to allow "unattended shutdown" or (even better) use the qemu-guest-agent within the vm and activate it on pve node at the VM options.
 
hi Mgabriel,

no it is for linux vms, windows, containers the lot.

when I book I see this task:

and when I used to shutdown I saw the reverse task "shutting down all VMs and Containers"
this no longer happens and it will just kill all vms and instantly turn off.
 
Did you upgrade to PVE7.2 in the last two days and does it start only after that?

Its a recent thing yes; not entirely sure if it was > 7.2 as I auto update my machines daily. Having said that I do believe it also happened from last week so could well be < 7.2
