NAME Stop-SVTvm



SYNOPSIS

Stop a virtual machine hosted on HPE SimpliVity storage





SYNTAX

Stop-SVTvm [-VMname] <String> [<CommonParameters>]





DESCRIPTION

Stop a virtual machine hosted on HPE SimpliVity storage



Stopping VMs with this command is not recommended. The VM will be in a "crash consistant" state.

This action may lead to data loss or data corruption.



A better option is to use the VMware PowerCLI Stop-VMGuest cmdlet. This shuts down the Guest OS gracefully.



Note: This command requires a specific version in the content-type passed to the REST API.

Upgrades to SimpliVity may require the version to be adjusted.
