Launching Virtualbox Image without UI
Posted: 24. Feb 2016, 22:03
Hello Experts,
I have installed Virtualbox 5.0 on my CentOS 6.7. I don't have a GUI installed on this box and don't want to install it because of few requirements.
I uploaded an OVA image to and imported it using the command:
VBoxManage import image.ova --vsys 0 --vmname NewImage --memory 4000 --unit 6 --disk /root/image.vmdk
This image (image.ova now image.vmdk) is a Web application. Now how do I launch and access this VM (Web Application) via command line without using GUI. I have used Virtualbox for many years but always with a GUI. How will I find out the IP address and how do I start it.
Thanks in advance.
