New-PveNodesQemuStatusStop

Stop virtual machine. The qemu process will exit immediately. This is akin to pulling the power plug of a running computer and may damage the VM data.

API: POST /nodes/{node}/qemu/{vmid}/status/stop, Proxmox VE API viewer

Aliases: Stop-PveQemu

New-PveNodesQemuStatusStop
[-PveTicket <PveTicket>]
[-Keepactive <bool>]
[-Migratedfrom <string>]
-Node <string>
[-OverruleShutdown <bool>]
[-Skiplock <bool>]
[-Timeout <int>]
-Vmid <int>
[<CommonParameters>]
Parameter Type Required Description
-PveTicket PveTicket No Ticket data connection.
-Keepactive bool No Do not deactivate storage volumes.
-Migratedfrom string No The cluster node name.
-Node string Yes The cluster node name.
-OverruleShutdown bool No Try to abort active ‘qmshutdown’ tasks before stopping.
-Skiplock bool No Ignore locks - only root is allowed to use this option.
-Timeout int No Wait maximal timeout seconds.
-Vmid int Yes The (unique) ID of the VM.

Every parameter also binds by property name from the pipeline, so an object with node and vmid properties (the output of Get-PveGuest, for one) fills -Node and -Vmid. Without -PveTicket the cmdlet uses the last connection, see Connection.

A PveResponse: the data returned by Proxmox VE is in .Response.data, the outcome in .IsSuccessStatusCode. See Results and Errors.
