Hello,

I believe the best way would be to use ansible with the ovirt ansible modules i.e. https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/modules/ovirt_vm_module.html#ovirt-vm-module -- you can do it with a simple task like:

- name: Stop vm
  ovirt_vm:
    state: stopped
    name: myvm

you could also use "virsh" on the command line to stop VMs but I'd stick with using ansible personally.

Hello Experts.

In version 3.5.2.1-1.el6, we used an "ovirt-shell -E action..." command to start/stop virtual machines from command line. In version 4.3.7.2-1.el7 ovirt-shell is deprecated. Please advise how to start/stop them from command line. vdsm-client provides only destroy/shutdown/reset/cont, nothing about startvm or poweron.

Regards.
