VirtualBox Linux服务vbox-service-template

191145686

　　vbox-service-template is an init.d script template for running a VirtualBox machine as a service.
　　Sending a stop command to the service will either save the state of the VM (hibernate) or send the ACPI Power Button signal to the VM and wait for it to self-terminate (powerbutton).

　　Installation
Make a copy of the script as /etc/init.d/vbox-NAME and follow the instructions in the comments in the script. Make sure you set the x bit on the file to make it executable.
　　To mark the service for automatic start at boot time:
　　Ubuntu: update-rc.d vbox-NAME defaults 90 (The '90' is to make sure it starts after the VirtualBox core services.
Fedora: chkconfig vbox-NAME on
To remove the service from the boot process:
　　Ubuntu: update-rc.d -f vbox-NAME remove
Fedora: chkconfig vbox-NAME off
Additionally, if you are going to shut down your computer while a VM is running you should tell VirtualBox how to handle shutdown. Create or edit /etc/default/virtualbox:
　　SHUTDOWN_USERS="user1 user2" # space-delimited list of users who might have runnings vms
SHUTDOWN=savestate # if any are found, suspend them to disk
