On a Windows 2003 SBS VM, that is quite long to shutdown ( about 200s ), the VM correctly shuts down but I have this error after 30s :
TASK ERROR: VM quit/powerdown failed - got timeout
The problem is not in the VM, as it shutdowns correctly, but only a reporting timeout problem.
I tried to change the shutdown timeout from the web interface with different values such as 600, 1200 & 3000, but it did not help. The Error message comes always after 30s regardless of the Shutdown timeout configured.
I also tried to use the qm shutdown from the command line, explicitely specifying timeout :
root@proxmox1:/etc/pve/nodes/proxmox1/qemu-server# qm shutdown 100 -timeout 300
With the command line, I do not have the problem. The shutdown ends with a "TASK OK" after 190s when the machine is effectively shut down.
If I do not specify the timeout, it takes a default timeout of 30s instead of the one from the config file :
Is this a bug ? What is the shutdown timeout used for then ?
How can I increase the default shutdown timeout ?
Thanks,
