  • 1.  vSAN shutdown cluster Powercli function

    Posted Jan 16, 2023 03:32 PM

    Hello,

    in Vcenter 7.0, vSAN Cluster have an option to shutdown whole cluster automatically. Cluster -> Configure -> Vsan -> Services -> Shutdown cluster

    Is there a Powercli function, or API code to use ?

    I need to automate this procedure for maintenance or other upgrade

    Thanks for your help

    I am not sure if the API is public, have asked internally, but somehow I doubt it is as I have not seen anyone talking about it.

    +1 to this - we actually have a support case open with VMware because we can't find what permissions are required to use the 'shutdown vsan' and 'restart / startup vsan' cluster other than top level / administrator@vsphere.local privs.

    We need to scope a role for tenants within our shared vcenter to do this - but it doesn't seem to be documented anywhere.  lmk if you have any insight!

    Thanks
