virtualbox

Post by marc77 »

Hello, I am currently in a class to learn Windows Server 2012. To do so I am using VBox from home, and emulating three machines. One is DC01 (domain controller), one is Router01 (the router), and one is IT007 (standard user account, running Windows 7). Various parts of the class require me to set up network connections and such throughout the three systems, and have them all online at the same time at various points. However I have noticed that if I try and have all 3 machines up at the same time, I get a "guru" error as the last machine is booting up (and it won't finish booting, I get the guru error). So I have included the log for Router01 and DC01, that the guru error mentions. Thanks ahead of time. I can check in later this evening, as I work nights and sleep during first part of the day.

Did you post the log? Couldn't find it.
First gut thought is too much memory being required by all the guests.
Memory for guest 1 + Memory for guest 2 + ... + Memory for guest N + 2GB average for modern host OS must be less than Total host memory.

Please post a VM log file. With the VM fully shut down, right click and "Show Log" in the GUI, save "VBox.log" (ONLY) to a zip, and attach the zip here.
