You posted on ticket #8970: Failed to load unit 'pgm' (VERR_SSM_INTEGRITY_DECOMPRESSION). Did you read the majority of the workarounds to "discard the saved state"?

What was the previous version of VirtualBox that you used to save the state? Was it the same? And to top it off, you're not even using the official VirtualBox, you're using the SUSE fork:
VirtualBox VM 5.2.16_SUSE r123745 linux.amd64 (Aug  4 2018 12:00:00) release log
You can either ask in their forums for help, or completely remove/uninstall/delete/purge their version and install the official version from the Downloads section of VirtualBox (https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads).

Socratis thank you for your reply.

Would discarding saved state result deleting database records?

Possibly, though it depends what you were doing and still had open when you suspended the VM. Discarding a saved state involves forgetting everything which was in memory at the time, though stuff already on disk should be safe. If you don't like this then best stop using saved states - shut down the guest OS properly.
