VirtualMachinePowerState_enum
VirtualMachinePowerState_enum
The PowerState type defines a simple set of states for a virtual machine: poweredOn, poweredOff, and suspended.
This type does not model substates, such as when a task is running to change the virtual machine state. If the virtual machine is in a state with a task in progress, it transitions to a new state when the task completes. For example, a virtual machine continues to be in the poweredOn state while a suspend task is running, and changes to the suspended state once the task finishes.
As a consequence of this approach, clients interested in monitoring the status of a virtual machine should typically track the activeTask data object in addition to the powerState object.
Possible values:
poweredOff: The virtual machine is currently powered off.poweredOn: The virtual machine is currently powered on.suspended: The virtual machine is currently suspended.
This data structure has no properties.
