export a VirtualBox appliance from command line
export a VirtualBox appliance from command line
This trick might be useful, I did an Ubuntu update and it did not works for my system, so Im rescuing many things, one of them are Virtual Machines from VirtualBox, so from command line the steps are:
1. vboxmanage list vms
You will get the list of all your Vms
2. vboxmanage export
Export the appliance to a single file, I tried this directly to an removable USB Hard Drive and it worked
3. Go to the target system and use this command:
vboxmanage import
and thats it, the import process may delay, it depends of the size of the appliance.
Cheers
