      I'm looking for a way to turn off blocking VM suspend without blocking VM stop. I see from xo-cli --list-commands that there is a vm.set described as:

      vm.set id=<string> [blockedOperations=<object>]
      

      I have, so far, been unable to figure out what to pass to blockedOperations to have it change a value. Not sure what it means by <object>.

      Passing a json string to it doesn't seem to work. I get an error that it must be an object.

      I believe I was able to blow away all blocked operations by passing nothing as that arg but I don't want to remove all of it, just the suspend. I realize that when wanting to block stop it makes sense to also block suspend because they, in essence, have the same result. I was hoping to extract an existing object from the vm properties, turn off suspend, then pass that object back to vm.set. Is my quest hopeless?

        @CodeMercenary Non-string values must be passed as JSON with xo-cli:

        xo-cli vm.set id=$id blockedOperations=json:'{ "clean_shutdown": "blocked by Julien" }'
        

        Also, entries passed to blockedOperations are merged with existing ones, if want to remove some entries, passed null as their values.

              @julien-f Thank you, that's super helpful and even easier than I thought it would be.
