Virtualbox VDI replication and mobile

After virtualbox is installed, you sometimes need to copy or move Virtual Disks. These operations can be used directly under the VMWare virtual machine, but in the virtualbox Environment

EachVDI
Each file has a unique UUID, andVirtualbox
Duplicate UUID registration is not allowed, so the copied VDI file cannot be used. Therefore, we need to use the built-in management commands of virtualbox to clone a VDI, in this way, the cloned VDI file will be re-allocated to a new UUID, so there will be no duplicatesYou can move and use


.

Vboxmanage


The command is as follows:

Vboxmanage
Clonevdi path/originalVDI
File name path/NewVDI
File Name
→ Press ENTER

In this way, the same virtual disk can be cloned.

 

Then register the disk on another virtualbox. (if there is no existing virtual system of the corresponding type, you can create a virtual system without a disk and then register it)

 

Note:

Only one. virtualbox directory can appear in the partition where virtualbox is installed, because virtualbox automatically scans the directory, even if you set the default

The directory may also have more than one. virtualbox directory with the same name.
