NethServer Version: 7.6.1810
Module: phpvirtualbox
I am new to Nethserver. After working with phpvirtualbox and trying to install ERPNext VM.
Login and importing official ERPNext VM was succesfull after following:
https://docs.nethserver.org/en/latest/phpVirtualBox.html#vm-networking
and
My goal was to achieve autostart vms when server reboot.
After following this link, I was able to create pausevms and resumevms scripts :
https://vorkbaard.nl/how-to-set-up-a-virtualbox-server-in-debian-9-web-interface-autostart-backup/
modified pausevms script:
#!/bin/bash
# Pause running VMs
STATUSFILE=/home/vboxweb/vm-status
# Clear the previous status file if it exists
if [ -e $STATUSFILE ]; then rm $STATUSFILE; fi
# List all VMs
for VM in $(sudo -H -u vboxweb vboxmanage list vms | rev | cut -d' ' -f1 | rev)
do
# Get VM state
STATE=$(sudo -H -u vboxweb vboxmanage showvminfo $VM --machinereadable | grep "VMState=" | cut -d'=' -f2)
# Pause if state is running or paused, write to status file
if [[ $STATE == \"running\" || $STATE == \"paused\" ]]; then
sudo -H -u vboxweb vboxmanage controlvm $VM savestate
# No need to restart paused vm's; just let them remain saved.
if [[ $STATE == \"running\" ]]; then echo "$VM">>$STATUSFILE; fi
fi
done
modified resuemvms script:
#!/bin/bash
# Restart VMs saved earlier
STATUSFILE=/home/vboxweb/vm-status
# If no status file exists then apparently there are no VMs to resume.
if [ ! -f $STATUSFILE ]; then exit; fi
while read VM; do
sudo -H -u vboxweb vboxmanage startvm $VM --type headless
done <$STATUSFILE
On server shutdown the created pausevms script worked well with the help of this link:
https://docs.nethserver.org/projects/nethserver-devel/en/v7/events.html
commands to configure shutdown script:
vi /etc/e-smith/events/actions/pausevms
chmod +x /etc/e-smith/events/actions/pausevms
ln -s /etc/e-smith/events/actions/pausevms /etc/e-smith/events/system-shutdown/S15pausevms
Same method used to configure resumevms on server reboot, but it didn’t work:
vi /etc/e-smith/events/actions/resumevms
chmod +x /etc/e-smith/events/actions/resumevms
ls -s /etc/e-smith/events/actions/resumevms /etc/e-smith/events/system-init/S99resumevms
kindly support how can I configure the resumevms script to auto run on sever reboot?
