vcenter_vm_power should mention that reset and stop are hard power off and hard reset not nice shutdown or reboot
SUMMARY
vcenter_vm_power currently does not make it clear that stop will result in virtually yanking the power cable out of the VM and a reset will result in a cold boot without the nice shutdown
also, a note explaining that the vm_guest_power module required for a nice shutdown has not been implemented yet
ISSUE TYPE
- Documentation Report
COMPONENT NAME
ANSIBLE VERSION
@goneri Are you working on this?
The vcenter_vm_guest_power
module issues a request to the guest operating system asking it (nicely) to reform a reboot. Whereas vcenter_vm_power
operates at the vcenter level and is unconditional. You're looking for the first module.
