#How to set up os x vm install
We will be explaining how to install Proxmox and how to set up a virtual machine. In this tutorial, we are going to cover a basic Proxmox set up for beginners who have no prior experience with Proxmox. This is why we are writing this tutorial. For new users, the shell can be intimidating and confusing. We also noticed many of them use techniques that we would do different ourselves, like using the shell for certain things when they can also be done using the Proxmox UI. Oct 2009, 16:45 Primary OS: Ubuntu 8.One day when troubleshooting a problem with Proxmox, we realised a lot of guides on the internet are out of date. If you have a way of configuring it so that the VM will automatically show up for each and every new user when they first open VirtualBox, please let me know. Of course, it would be nice if there were a way to do it so that I don't even have to help each use 'ADD' the VM, but at least this is better than having to go in and reconfigure all of the settings for each and every new user. NOT 'New' or 'Import', or anything else, but 'ADD'). Now, when a new user wants to use the VM, they just have to 'Add' it via the 'Machine' menu within VirtualBox (i.e. You'll just have to open the two files in text editor and look for obvious paths, and change them to match where they are actually located now after you moved them to the 'shared folder'.
Edit the two files (vmName.xml and vmName.vbox) to make sure the paths all line up correctly with their new homes. Set the permissions to propagate to all child objects with the 'Apply to enclosed items' option.ħ. Change permissions on the 'shared folder' so that 'VMGroup' has read/write access to the folder.Ħ. Create a group in 'Accounts' that will be used to give users access to the VM/s (I named my group 'VMGroup'), and place all relevant users into that new group.ĥ. users/username/library/virtualbox/virtualbox.xmlĤ. users/username/virtualbox vms/vmName.vboxī.
Move all necessary related files into the 'shared folder'…Ī. Previously, it resided in the following location…ģ. Move the vdisk file into the newly created folder. I put mine at the root of the HD, and named it 'VirtualMachines'Ģ. This folder can be anywhere, but higher in the hierarchy makes it less complicated to set permissions on. create a folder where you will store the VM and all related files to be shared with all users later. Ha ha, ya.I'm just too lazy right now, and in too much of a freakin hurry to get this implemented to take the time to actually learn anything.ġ.

#How to set up os x vm mac
Sorry for being so ignorant, but I'm not at all familiar with vi, and not very good in Mac yet (though I'm a long-time Win IT guy with some Linux). I must credit this post by Matthew that helped me figure out how to set the variable. Save changes in Vi (hit ESC, hold SHIFT and press Z twice)ĭoing this, now all users on my iMac can see the same virtual machines. Type "setenv VBOX_USER_HOME /Users/Shared/VirtualBox" (or whatever directory you want to use)Ĥ. Also, before I did this I set the VirtualBox default locations for Machines and Hard Disks to shared directories.ģ. I am a novice, so here is how I did it in case it helps someone else.
