@Akasurde do you want to implement this one? Have a look at ExitMaintenanceModeTask:

govmomi/simulator/host_system.go

Line 189 in 76228ab

func (h *HostSystem) ExitMaintenanceModeTask(spec *types.ExitMaintenanceMode_Task) soap.HasFault {

Copy and replace "ExitMaintenanceMode" with "Reboot". Instead of setting InMaintenanceMode, you'd probably want check the value of InMaintenanceMode. If true or the request.Force flag is true, return nil. Otherwise, if InMaintenanceMode is false, return the same fault a real VC would. types.ResourceInUse for example.
