Snapshot Description via VBoxManange snapshot <name> list

[Adam L]

Hello All,

Should I be able to see the description of a snapshot via the following command?

Code: Select all

VBoxManage snapshot <uuid>|<name> list --details

The command has the same output regardless of whether or not I append the --details argument.

I am using the Linux version on an Arch Linux x86_64 host, if this happens to be relevant.

I hope everyone is having a happy day!

Kindly,

Adam

Stupid question?

I think the mods didn't have time to reply yet, give it a bit more time
I personally don't know if you actually will see more or less.

AFAIK the description only shows in the GUI. Since the description is stored in the *.vbox (control file) that the showvm info is parsed from it may be possible to edit the source to include, but I have not tested this yet.
