Inactivity shutdown behaviour

[ysaakpr]

Even though i kept 5 minute of inactivity to shutdown/stop the instance. I found that its not working as expected. Or may be my expectation is wrong. I keep closing the my workbook, by shutting the display down, and laptop enders a. sleep mod. But even after i am coming back i see the nodes are still running.

What is the expected behaviour for a instance stop to happen successfully after the inactivity time

For me, too, virtual machine instances never stop automatically...
