You should possibly find more information in vdsm.log about why it has
failed.

Power off forcibly stops the VM. From the VM point of view it is similar
to pulling out a power cord from bare metal computer.

Shutdown delivers a request to the guest OS (which may or may not
satisfy the request). If you see an error it means there was a problem
communicating the request to the guest. The request is delivered either
using a guest agent (if one is installed) or using an ACPI event.

Hope this helps,
