Post A script to shutdown the system under certain conditions

Hello,
I need a script that shuts down the host when the virtual machine is shut down in VirtualBox.
Any example?

Thank you.

If the VM can see the host, then I’d have the VM run a command on shutdown. That command would be to shut the host down over SSH.

What is the host operating system? What is the operating system of the guest?
