Graceful FortiManager VM shutdown from Hypervisor

[AlexFerenX]

Hi!

Unlike Fortigate VM, neither FortiManager nor FortiAnalyzer VM respond to KVM "qm shutdown" command that "send an ACPI event for the guest OS". Is this by design - if so, why?

This is required when the Host is required to perform emergency shutdown of all Guests.

FortiManager and FortiAnalyzer VM can be configured for a smooth shutdown, but this usually requires special steps in the hypervisor settings and settings of the virtual machine itself.
For FortiManager and FortiAnalyzer VM, the "qm shutdown" command may not work due to differences in the virtual machine's configuration or ACPI support.

Thanks, but unhelpful reply - may be this, may be that. 

Fortinet employees where are you?

Unsure what conserve mode has to do with emergency power-down on a VM, but for former try automation-stitch for log id 22011.
