I don't do a *lot* of testing on VMWare, so perhaps I have a limited viewpoint. For example, I don't use VMWare to shut down my virtual hosts - I have them shut themselves down as if they were physical hosts.
I have installed OpenBSD on VMWare, and I've never had a problem just doing
`shutdown -h now`
from within the OpenBSD instance. It's the same command I would use for a physical server, and it gave me the results I expected.
