SmartOS host on the bhyve hypervisor. Yes, it will do this and pull the
plug.
The guest gets quite a bit of time to poweroff. For some reason, it
seems that
only my Vaultwarden guest wants to take long. I also have a more complex
synapse server and OpenBao server running which shut down in time. I don't
know if there is a way to extend that timeout on the host, but I also
don't like
that solution as much if it does exist.

console in and fsck it. My assumption has been that perhaps Vaultwarden is
taking too long to stop, but I am unsure. I don't see anything in the logs.
Any suggestions where I can start to look to see why this VM is being
a problem?
I have multiple other OpenBSD 7.7 and -current VMs running on this host.
What's the host? What mechanism is being used to shutdown the vm?
It sounds like the host/hypervisor has a timeout and it pulls the plug
on the vm if it fails to stop itself within that timeout. I know vmd(8)
does this.
