Teleportation with Virtual Box

Post by tagman »

Hello

I am having issuses tyring to teleport a vm from one computer to another. Here is the background info:

Machine 1
Host OS is Windows 7 Guest OS is Fedora 16
The machine is a Dell Dimension 9150, CPU is an Intel Pentium D 2.80GHz
version of VirtualBox on machine1 is 4.1.8 r75467

Machine 2
Host OS is Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Guest is Fedora 16
The machine has an Intel Core 2 Duo CPU E7400@2.80GHz
version of Virtual Box on machine2 is 3.1.6_OSE r59338 (downloaded using apt -get)

When I try to teleport the vm from machine1 to machine2 I get an error message on machine2:
unsupported version 12 ofdata unit 'cpum' (instance#1, pass 0x0) VERR_SSM_UNSUPPORTED_DATA_UNIT_VERSION

I have setup everything I can to make both machines the same.

What do I need to do to make this work.

Why not install VB 4.1.8 on machine 2? It may never make it to the repo, but you can get it directly from virtualbox.org.

I have upgraded machine number 2 to virtualbox version 4.1.8 r75467, and my initial issue was solved. Does both vm's have to be on the same disk store, or can they be on different computers. Th e reason why I ask is that when I tried teleportation, it starts the process and then times out when trying to do teleportation between to computers.

Also, is there a forum I can go to with questions about Teleportation? Either on this site or elsewhere.

Teleporting appears to be broken in the 4.1.x stream, the workaround is to use 4.0.
