Hello, my project still uses VBoxManage but I am inclined to switch to libvirt, if possible, because I like the concept. Some rather unusual commands are used by my project... VBoxManage modifyvm "$VMNAME" --synthcpu on VBoxManage setextradata "$VMNAME" "VBoxInternal/Devices/VMMDev/0/Config/GetHostTimeDisabled" "1" VBoxManage modifyvm "$VMNAME"

Hello listmates, I am wondering if there is a set of scripts/utilities for automatically starting and running headless (no X11) VM's using VirtualBox omn a CentOS 6 server. VNC/RDP access to the VM's would be fine. Any help much appreciated. Cheers, Boris.

Awesome! Thanks for your replies everybody. I was looking more or less at the same options. Just was wondering if there was a ready-made set of scripts somewhere to set all of this in motion to save me a little time - but if not, I will just make one. Cheers, Boris.

Hi all, I have been looking at various alternatives for a system that runs several Linux & Windows guests. So far my favorite choice would be OpenSolaris+ZFS+RAIDZ+VirtualBox. Is this combo ready to be a host for Linux & Windows guests? Or is it not 100% stable (yet)? Greetings, Evert This message posted from opensolaris.org

Hi Is anyone here using VirtualBox? I've had it working rather well for some time, but after some recent upgrade or the other it's started exiting with a Segmentation fault just after startup, before windows are opened or anything. I've tried a few different versions, all with the same result. I'm using binary packages http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/rpm/el. So,

I''m running OpenSolaris 2008.05 in VirtualBox on a Windows XP host. Playing around with various probes, I found that trying to load any probe associated with bdev_strategy dumps core. I can think of one or two likely and reasonable causes for this, but am assuming it''s undesirable behavior. Anyone know what''s happening here? -- This message posted from

I have a new OSX Lion Macbook and would like to control VirtualBox using "virsh" (as I do with KVM under Ubuntu). I've got this far: * Installed VirtualBox * Installed libvirt (brew install libvirt) But now I'm a bit stuck :-) I ran VirtualBox itself, and created a test VM successfully. If I try to use virsh, this is what I get: Brians-MacBook-Air:~ $ virsh -c

I have an older quad-core AMD processor that supports hardware virtualization on a motherboard that does not support it in the bios. Eventually I'll swap the mobo out on this box for one that will support hardware virtualization and use qemu-kvm. I prefer kvm because of SELinux and sVirt that protects the host from VM breakout should a VM become hostile. In the meantime, I want to start work

Hi unfortunately VirtualBox does not work yet in a Solaris Dom0: I installed VirtualBox beta and it runs fine on bare metal. Unfortunately the necessary driver does not load automatically in a xVM Dom0. It can be loaded manually but it looks like it does not work in a Dom0: bash-3.2# modinfo | grep vbox # this is a one time task: bash-3.2# cp /platform/i86pc/kernel/drv/amd64/vboxdrv

My objective is also to run headless virtual machines through libvirt library. I am using an Ubuntu 10.04 distro and libvirt 0.9.2. Before asking you guys about it, I searched on the web and found this: Hi, > > thanks for your hint. > > I read the lines in the documentation, but unfortunately editing the xml > > within virsh lead to the errors. > > The Solution to a

Hi, I''m afraid I have some problems understanding how crossbow is supposed to work ;) On my machine (OpenSolaris, snv_111) I''m running VirtualBox with couple of linux / XP installation and additionally a zone with exclusive IP. My network configuration looks like this: [6]elsinore:~>dladm show-link LINK CLASS MTU STATE OVER bge0 phys 1500 up

Hi all, I have a Sun x2200 named Adra running OpenSolaris 2008.11 set up as a Dom0 per Levon''s instructions on this site. It hosts some production services and has been running nice and stable for a number of months now (with NetWare DomUs running GroupWise, believe it or not). The machine is pretty nicely speced out and there''s room for more virtualisation, so I was

Hello, I?m using ZFS to export some iscsi targets for the virtual box iscsi initiator. It works ok if I try to install the guest OS manually. However, I?d like to be able to import my already prepared guest os vdi images into the iscsi devices but I can?t figure out how to do it. Each time I tried, I cannot boot. It only works if I save the manually installed guest os and re-instate the same

Any Virtualbox on CentOS guru's out there? I only have 1 VM on my linux host. in the update process to virtualbox 6.1.16 my config was lost. When I run Virtualbox my VM does not show.

Hi, has anyone of you successfully used libvirt with VirtualBox? I ask because I haven't managed to connect to my machines and would like to benefit from your experience. Cheers Boris

Hello there, currently I have Windows on my machine because I need it for school. And because of my small hard disc (only 80 GB) I cannot install Linux. I have a magazine about Linux with an introduction to Samba. That's why I wanted to try out Samba. I downloaded VirtualBox and installed Archlinux. Samba is installed and I created a shared folder on Windows and on my Archlinux, but I

Has anyone gotten virtualbox to run on Centos8? I did the install, and it complained about missing elflibs, so I installed those, and the virtualbox install finished without any reported problems. when i try to run virtualbox, it fails with this message: Qt FATAL: This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be initialized. Reinstalling the application may fix this
