Nicolas,
I have not set a delay for the shut down of your new virtual machines. Where would I go to see that option?
Andrew,
OS is Windows Server 2016 Standard.
The VM are application servers and it does not has much on it.
Range of time is between 5 to 10 mins.
The host is nutanix nodes.
I noticed that windows updates takes long to install, can that be reason why the VM's are slow shutting down?

This solution is only available to members.
To access this solution, you must be a member of Experts Exchange.
In the Per-VM Overrides pane, configure the startup order and behavior for individual virtual machines.
Select Custom and configure the Shutdown Action and the Shutdown Delay (s) by clicking the default options in the respective columns.
The default shutdown action is Power off and the default shutdown delay is 120.
So you can check if it's more or not, you will see if the problem is here.
