Post by Robert_command »

hi,
there is a vay to connet a oracle cloud instance, to virtualbox installed on the macchine and use it in trasparent mode?.
i have tried to install localy, but the performance are very poor.

That will be 'Seamless Mode', https://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch04. ... esswindows. Seamless Mode requires Guest Additions to be installed in the Virtualbox VM. How Seamless will work in Virtualbox under nested virtualization in a VMware VM is unknown to me.
