I have it running and created /etc/acpi/event/power : |
| 10 |
event=button/power.* |
| 11 |
action=/sbin/shutdown -h now |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
But I do not know how to trigger short power-button press. |
| 14 |
In vSphere-Client "shutdown guest" is still grey, and |
| 15 |
when I click on "Power->PowerOff", it is just powered off, |
| 16 |
without shutdown (as if power-button was pressed for long |
| 17 |
time). I suppose vmware-tools are needed for this... |
