Win11 VM sleep

[primzy6551]

Is it possible to wake up vm using keyboard and mouse that are connected to the host?
Whenever Win11 VM goes to sleep you have to wake it up with resume in proxmox.

Many thanks

not really,
I don't see the point of VM in sleep.
Disable it.

I have no solution for you, but I am curious: what is your use case for this?

"Sleep mode" was invented to safe energy by shutting down (most parts of) the hardware while keeping the current system state. For this to achieve on PVE the host would need to sleep - and that's not... a supported mechanism, I believe.

My opinion: VMs should either run - even while just idling - or be shutdown, so I am with @_gabriel

It can shut down no problem. Id just want it to wake it up with keyboard or mouse.
And no sending a command over network is not an option.

Hi @primzy6551, have you ever found a solution to this? I would like to solve the same problem for one of my linux VMs.
