|
> Import a previously exported virtual machine (VM).

|
|
- Import a VM from an OVF or OVA file:
|
|
|
|
`VBoxManage import {{path/to/file.ovf}}`
|
|
|
|
- Set the name of the imported VM:
|
|
|
|
`VBoxManage import {{path/to/file.ovf}} --name {{vm_name}}`
|
|
|
|
- Indicate the folder where the configuration of the imported VM will be stored:
|
|
|
|
`VBoxManage import {{path/to/file.ovf}} --basefolder {{path/to/directory}}`
|
|
|
|
- Register the imported VM in VirtualBox:
|
|
|
|
`VBoxManage import {{path/to/file.ovf}} --register`
|
|
|
|
- Perform a dry run to check the import without actually importing:
|
|
|
|
`VBoxManage import {{path/to/file.ovf}} --dry-run`
|
|
|
|
- Set the guest OS type (one of `VBoxManage list ostypes`) for the imported VM:
|
|
|
|
`VBoxManage import {{path/to/file.ovf}} --ostype={{ostype}}`
|
|
|
|
- Set the memory (in megabytes) for the imported VM:
|
|
|
|
`VBoxManage import {{path/to/file.ovf}} --memory={{1}}`
|
|
|
|
- Set the number of CPUs for the imported VM:
|
|
|
|
`VBoxManage import {{path/to/file.ovf}} --cpus={{1}}`
