hi,
i have around 5 hosts and each handles 8-10 vms each, main problem, is when i want to restart esx host, i have to manually log in to every vm and shutdown manully. What i wan to know is if directly restart the host in vCenter by right clicking on the host, do all the vms in the particular host get shutdown properly or forcefully, what is the process that actually takes place when i restart host in vCenter. If vms shutdown forcefully then what is the easiest and best way to reboot a esx host.
Thank you very much in advance.
