With virtualbox (On windows 7 host), how can I list all the snapshots of a VM?
Ideally, there will be one line per snapshot, and each snapshot will have the name and the UUID.
The VBoxManage snapshot command manages snapshots. Oracle VM VirtualBox uses the snapshot to capture the state of a virtual machine (VM). You can later use the snapshot to revert to the state described by the snapshot. A snapshot is a complete copy of a VM's settings.
To get a list of all VM Snapshots for VMs managed by vCenter you can type the following command: get-vm | get-snapshot | format-list
VBoxManage list The list command gives relevant information about your system and information about Oracle VM VirtualBox's current settings. The following subcommands are available with VBoxManage list : vms: Lists all virtual machines currently registered with Oracle VM VirtualBox.
