Virtual server shutdown - planned outage.

Hi,

Can somone please clarify the following

I have a planned server room power outage coming up, I have 3 virtual servers that will need to be gracefully shutdown. How best to do this? They are acting as DR servers with double take so I dont need to worry about the order. Is this correct  -


Login to VSPHERE - connect to the server - shutdown from the console. Then pysically login to the servers via a VGA cable/keyboard and mouse and shutdown the server via the ESXI console?
