Are you running this on a virtual machine? If so, are you powering off its host machine?

Fellow Pluggers,

So I am trying to perform a remote poweroff command and for some reason the host powers itself off. I am able to run another command such as yum just fine but when I try to execute the poweroff command the host turns off as well. Below is the script that I am running



#!/bin/bash

for server in $(cat serverlist.txt); do
       ssh $server.localdomain 'yum update -y && poweroff'
done

Also note that the serverlist.txt does not contain the host itself. Thanks for the help.
