| 7 | <p>When a VM is started using <ph conkeyref="vbox-conkeyref-phrases/vbox-mgr"/>, a dialog will open where the user
|
|---|
| 8 | needs to enter all passwords for all encrypted images attached to the VM. If another frontend like VBoxHeadless is
|
|---|
| 9 | used, the VM will be paused as soon as the guest tries to access an encrypted disk. The user needs to provide the
|
|---|
| 10 | passwords through <userinput>VBoxManage</userinput> using the following command: </p>
|
|---|
| 11 | <pre xml:space="preserve">VBoxManage controlvm <varname>uuid</varname>|<varname>vmname</varname> addencpassword <varname>ID</varname>
|
|---|
| 12 | <varname>password</varname> [--removeonsuspend yes|no]</pre>
|
|---|
| 13 | <p><varname>ID</varname> must be the same as the password
|
|---|
| 14 | identifier supplied when encrypting the images.
|
|---|
| 15 | <varname>password</varname> is the password used when
|
|---|
| 16 | encrypting the images. Optionally, you can specify
|
|---|
| 17 | <codeph>--removeonsuspend</codeph> yes|no to specify whether to
|
|---|
| 18 | remove the password from VM memory when the VM is suspended.
|
|---|
| 19 | Before the VM can be resumed, the user needs to supply the
|
|---|
| 20 | passwords again. This is useful when a VM is suspended by a host
|
|---|
| 21 | suspend event and the user does not want the password to remain
|
|---|
| 22 | in memory.
