vboxmanage-controlvm

Change the state and the settings of a currently running virtual machine. More information: https://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch08.html#vboxmanage-controlvm.

  • Temporarily stop the execution of a virtual machine:

VBoxManage controlvm {{uuid|vm_name}} pause

  • Resume the execution of a paused virtual machine:

VBoxManage controlvm {{uuid|vm_name}} resume

  • Perform a cold reset on the virtual machine:

VBoxManage controlvm {{uuid|vm_name}} reset

  • Poweroff a virtual machine with the same effect as pulling the power cable of a computer:

VBoxManage controlvm {{uuid|vm_name}} poweroff

  • Shutdown the virtual machine and save its current state:

VBoxManage controlvm {{uuid|vm_name}} savestate

  • Send an ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface) shutdown signal to the virtual machine:

VBoxManage controlvm {{uuid|vm_name}} acpipowerbutton

  • Send command to reboot itself to the guest OS:

VBoxManage controlvm {{uuid|vm_name}} reboot

  • Shutdown down the virtual machine without saving its state:

VBoxManage controlvm {{uuid|vm_name}} shutdown
