Shelving is very similar to shutting the VM off, but a bit more complex. The quota for that instance will be deduced from your quota too, and if not unshelved in a specific amount of time, the VM will be removed. When unshelving, you will need to have enough quota to get it back.
Currently your server is in 'shelving' status, so it sholud be waiting for it to shut off, once that happens it will consider it as shelved. If it's still running in a while feel free to open a ticket so we do some debugging. Cheers!
