Script ini saya modifikasi dari script nya Kevin Swanson yang ditampilkan disini.
Buat config file untuk vboxcontrol init.d script
# mkdir /etc/virtualbox # touch /etc/virtualbox/machines_enabled
file machines_enabled ini berisi daftar nama dari Guest VM yang akan dijalankan secara otomatis. Daftarnya bisa kita dapatkan dari perintah :
$VBoxManage list vms
"Mikrotik3.10" {1e8dfce2-2068-4922-9ce1-86925e31b5cf}
"Ubuntu 8.04" {c4050afb-7077-4c60-83e5-898d4ff8508e}
"HS-Win" {75d80d99-d9c5-41cf-9e88-1d1c3ef5dd4c}
Sehingga isi file machines_enabled adalah
#nano /etc/virtualbox/machines_enabled "Mikrotik3.10" "Ubuntu 8.04" "HS-Win"
Buat VirtualBox VM init.d script
Buat script init.d baru dan beri permition untuk di eksekusi
# touch /etc/init.d/vboxcontrol # chmod 755 /etc/init.d/vboxcontrol
Kopi script berikut ke /etc/init.d/vboxcontrol
# Startup script for VirtualBox Virtual Machines
#
# update-rc.d defaults 98 02
# chkconfig: 345 98 02
# description: Manages VirtualBox VMs

tambahkan vboxcontrol ke daftar startup service
# update-rc.d vboxcontrol defaults 98 02
Cara penggunaan:
Menjalankan semua virtual machine yang terdaftar dalam file machines_enabled
#/etc/init.d/vboxcontrol start
Mematikan semua virtual machine yang sedang running
#/etc/init.d/vboxcontrol stop
Melihat status virtual maschine yang running
#/etc/init.d/vboxcontrol status
Menyalakan virtual machine tertentu
#/etc/init.d/vboxcontrol start-vm
Mematikan virtual machine tertentu
#/etc/init.d/vboxcontrol stop-vm
Mematikan power virtual machine tertentu
#/etc/init.d/vboxcontrol poweroff-vm
Pada script asli option stop akan mengirimkan sinyal acpipowerbutton, sedangkan pada host saya option tersebut tidak jalan, sehingga saya menggantinya dengan option savestate.
tambahan script :
#!/bin/bash
# This script starts and stops the VirtualBox virtual machine winxpvb11.
# Use a RDP client to connect to the virtual machine.
