/sbin/shutdown.sh not longer works after updating to ESXi 6.5

I have long since relied on the /sbin/shutdown.sh && /sbin/poweroff combo to gracefully shut down ESXi hosts and it's never had an issue. After upgrading from 6.0 to 6.5 however my scripts ceased to work.


I SSH'd into the server and ran shutdown.sh manually, only to get the following:

 

Errors:

Invalid operation requested: This ruleset is required and connot be disabled

Saving current state in /bootbank

Clock updated.

Time: 06:27:02   Date: 12/27/2017   UTC

 

I stepped through the shutdown script and found that the issue appears when the following is run:

 

/sbin/services.sh stop

 

Any ideas what could be causing this?
