See Chapter 8. VBoxManage in your VirtualBox users guide.

Or if you just want to start the main GUI where you start everything from and configure the VMs, because you don't have a menu with shortcuts and whatnot, simply use 'VirtualBox'. Note the uppercase V and B, Linux is case sensitive. This is for the PUEL version you get from the website, the OSE version is all lowercase.
