[PVE-User] Shutting down Windows 10, 2016 and 2019 VMs

[Eneko Lacunza]

Hi,

I wonder how much money did you pay Maurer IT for their excelent open 
source product, and Red Hat, for the very same?

Did you know that you can get support tickets from Maurer IT?

I guess you'll need them the next time you need help...

Cheers
