To anyone I have a Virtualbox with 6 guest VM running on a box that has CentOS.
I want to shutdown one of the guest and turn it back on. When I right click on the one VM guest I don't see a close button like the Windows version of Virtual box.
How can I shut it down and then turn it back on.
I also want it to boot to the VM without the headless mode.
Bear with me as I am a beginner using CentOS.
Thanks

Re: how to shutdown one VM guest in Virtual Box 4.1.22
is this the way to shutdown the guest VM.
1. On my CentOS go to Terminal
2. type in the command # VBoxManage list vms this is to get the list of VM.
3. type in VBoxManage controlvm “nameofmachine” poweroff
For these command line do I need to use the #su root to be in the root account

Shouldn't. Just the user account that started the guest.
