Guest will not turn off, only suspend

$

Hello!

 

 

We are running VMWare server on SuSE Enterprise Server 10.  We have two guests, both are Win2k3 Server.  Everything works fine, except when you shut down one of the guests (Start,shutdown) it appears to shut down properly, but VMWare says it is suspended.  The other guest will completely power off correctly.

 

 

 

 

 

From the linux host shell I have tried:  vmware-cmd <cfg> stop  and that gracefully stops the guest, but as soon as it stops, VMWare shows it as suspended, not off. Again, the other guest os will show powered off when I issue this command.

 

 

I know this is not a big deal and everything is working, but I need to change some guest settings and I cannot do it in suspend mode.  How can I get VMware to see this guest as "off" and not "suspended" ?

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks

 

 

Matt
