You can use the Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) to stop an IBM® PowerKVM system.

To stop an IBM PowerKVM system, complete the following steps:
  1. Log in to the host as a root user or with sudo authority.
  2. To power off each of the guests, complete the following steps.
    1. To obtain a list of all guests, type virsh list.
    2. For each guest in the list, type virsh shutdown domain name or type virsh shutdown domain ID.
      Note:
      Type virsh list to verify whether all the guests are powered off. If any guest is not powered off, type virsh destroy domain name or type virsh destroy domain ID to power off the guest.
  3. Run the ipmitool -I lanplus -H FSP IP -P ipmipassword chassis power off command from a remote system.
