@ -16,9 +16,14 @@ Vagrant will first attempt to gracefully shut down the machine by running
the guest OS shutdown mechanism. If this fails, or if the `--force` flag is
specified, Vagrant will effectively just shut off power to the machine.
For linux-based guests, Vagrant uses the `shutdown` command to gracefully
terminate the machine. Due to the varying nature of operating systems, the
`shutdown` command may exist at many different locations in the guest's `$PATH`.
For linux-based guests, Vagrant will:
1. Attempt to detect and use Systemd to execute `systemctl poweroff`; but otherwise,
2. Fallback to using the `shutdown` command to gracefully
terminate the machine.
Due to the varying nature of operating systems, these executables may exist at many
different locations in the guest's `$PATH`.
It is the guest machine's responsibility to properly populate the `$PATH` with
directory containing the `shutdown` command.
