Hi,
my environment:
2 ESXi hosts on vmware 5.5
1 disc array (all VM's are on it, except PowerChute Network Shutdown 3.1)
vCenter as VM on one of those ESXi
PowerChute Network Shutdown 3.1 appliance on first ESXi but on local discstore
I configured automatic VM shutdown in PowerChute Network Shutdown 3.1, tested it and it works fine.
Question:
Does PowerChute Network Shutdown 3.1 will shutdown ESXi hosts? How can i configure it to shutdown ESXi hosts after all VM's are in power off state?

Hi Lukasz,
You may configure PCNS to shut down the host once the VM's have completed their shutdown. The link below is for APC Application Note 180 which gives more information on different configurations to achieve this:
