8 In case the snapshot model of Oracle VM VirtualBox is not sufficient it
9 is possible to enable a special mode which makes it possible to
10 reconfigure storage attachments while the VM is paused. The user
11 has to make sure that the disk data stays consistent to the guest
12 because unlike with hotplugging the guest is not informed about
13 detached or newly attached media.
14 </p>
15 <p>
16 The expert storage management mode can be enabled per VM
17 executing:
18 </p>
19 <pre xml:space="preserve">$ VBoxManage setextradata <varname>VM-name</varname> "VBoxInternal2/SilentReconfigureWhilePaused" 1</pre>
20 <p>
21 You can reconfigure storage attachments later while the VM is
22 paused by using the <userinput>VBoxManage storageattach</userinput>
23 command.
