October 12, 20196 yr Is there a way to automate or schedule the launching and closing of VMs? I have some web automation operations that I want to run in a cron job on a VM but I don't want the VM to be up all the time. I'd like to be able to start a VM at a scheduled time and then turn it off at another scheduled time periodically. Is there an API to starting and stopping VMs? On the topic of VMs. Is it safe to "Stop" a Linux Ubuntu VM from the Unraid VM tab without actually shutting it down within the VM? Or does the "Stop" operation take care of telling the VM to shut down gracefully. I don't want to just pull-the-plug on a VM if I don't have to.
