Running VirtualBox VM host on ReadyNAS Pro
What is VirtualBox? So, I got bored while laundry was going... and decided to see how well a virtual OS would run on the Pro. My first choice of VM was VirtualBox, just cause I'm familiar with it a...
Steve,
Thanks for the feedback and Ubuntu tips. Based on your comments, I started testing fsniper and realized that I did not test fsniper after incorporating the use of Daemontools. My first versions of this guide did not use Daemontools. It appears that all of the extractions are being placed in /service/fsniper. Apparently, Daemontools changes fsniper's working location.
httpd.conf is linked in the same directory, so source and destination are the same and no path is needed.
Whether or not a VM shuts down properly using ACPI is usually the fault of the VM. VBox sends an ACPI signal to the VM using the same process that generates an interrupt when you press the power button. I have found that ACPI binary modules, specifically DSDT.dat code, does not work as planned when run inside of a VM. As a matter of fact, the only VM that I'm using that seems to shut down properly using ACPI is Windows8Pro. I know that using phpvboxmanager to shut down a VM is a point of convenience and peace of mind over using the "Power Off" option. You can always use the console viewer or web portal [if one is available] to shut down from inside the VM.
Thanks,
Matt
