Hi
We are unable to restart the Hyper-V Windows 2016 server: when restarting the Hyper V Server it shuts down instead, and we need to physically push the power button on the server in order to start it again.
The Virtual Windows 2016 server does not have this problem, and restarts fine.
In the event Viewer we have the following information:
The process C:\Windows\system32\shutdown.exe (HYPERV) has initiated the restart of computer HYPERV on behalf of user HYPERV\Administrator for the following reason: No title for this reason could be found
Reason Code: 0x800000ff
Shutdown Type: restart

We had tryed to shutdown via command like shutdown /r .
And we have got following sugestion:
A
click start and type power plan and select 'choose a power plan' from the list
next to the power plan that is selected click 'change plan settings'
click 'change advanced power settings'
under power buttons and lid set power button and sleep button (and lid if its there) to do nothing.
should prevent events from power button.
B
Go to "Settings"
Select "System"
Select "Power and Sleep"
Select "Additional Power Settings"
Select "Choose what the power buttons do"
Select "Change settings currently available"
Ensure that "Turn on fast start up" is deselected (unticked)
Click on "Save Changes"
The sugestion did not help
A hint would be nice
Best Regards
