PowerCLI Commands to Keep the Maintenance Mode

[Sathish Kumar Mathaiyan]

Newbie here.. !! 

set-Vmhost -VMhost Hostname  -state "Maintenance"  is setting the host into the Maintenance. 

is there a way to Pass a command to uncheck this settings "Move powered-off and suspended virtual machines to other hosts in the cluster"

Basically i want keep the Powered off VM's in the same Host (Even if the DRS is enabled at the cluster level).

Not that I know of.
You will have to disable DRS temporarily to get that effect.

should work if you leave out the -Evacuate parameter or set it -Evacuate:$false
