You are getting things confused. The poweroff command does need the
vmpoff= option. If you put LOGOFF there it will issue that command
whether you're logged on or disconnected.

What the rest of us were talking about is the 'SIGNAL SHUTDOWN'
command on VM and others that use that interface. This triggers
through /etc/inittab the shutdown command and special processing there
tells VM when Linux is done and can be logged off. This only works
when the virtual machine is disconnected.
