Thanks for the info.  We do have an Ubuntu 22.04.02 client on this machine.  Did you disable Guest Services or the Backup Service on the non-Windows VM to resolve the issue?

Unchecked the VSS in setting/guest services and the shutdown/save-state of all guest worked as intended when the host is shutdown or restarted.

For linux i haven't seen this problem. Running a couple of debians on several hosts.

But maybe it's worth a try in your case. If not, you got to "save" and "restore" em with a script.
