I was wondering if it's possible to run an Ubuntu virtual machine using VirtualBox in background, I mean, without any window open.
The idea is to connect via SSH to the Linux host, that would be running in background.
Has anyone ever done something like this? Is it possible?
Best Answer
VBoxManage startvm $VM --type headless
will start the specified virtual machine in the background.To shut it down, request the shut down from the guest.
