My use case is that I just don't want to start manually the virtual machines when the
host starts and, also, if the host is shutdown it should guest-shutdown the virtual
machines.
Any doc on that pin option? How one is supposed to pin a virtual machine to a host?
Thank you.

what exactly is your use case?
the one i'm familiar with is to tie the VM life cycle to a specific
host, so a VM which is pinned to a specific host for a certain task
(say, IDS), is always starting when the host starts, and will be
automatically shutdown when host is moved to maintenance.
so only relevant for VMs which are pinned to a host.
Thanks,
Itamar
