[ovirt-users] Force-Shutdown a VM?

[Derek Atkins]

Okay, I'll bite.  Which button is that?

I'm in the Virtual Machines tab on the admin portal; I select the hung VM
from my list and I see the following items at the top of the page:
"New VM", "Import", "Edit", "Remove", "Clone VM", "Run Once", "<Run>",
"<Suspend>", "<Shutdown>", "<Reboot>", "<Console>", "Migrate", "Cancel
Migration", "Cancel Conversion", and then the right arrow to "Make
Template", "Export", "Create Snapshot", "Change CD", "Assign Tags", and
"Guide Me".

Please, kind sir, which one is the "power off" instead of "shutdown"?
