    14         Every time <ph conkeyref="vbox-conkeyref-phrases/product-name"/> starts up a VM, a so-called
    15         <i>release log file</i> is created, containing
    16         lots of information about the VM configuration and runtime
    17         events. The log file is called <filepath>VBox.log</filepath> and
    18         resides in the VM log file folder, which is
    19         <filepath>$HOME/VirtualBox
    20         VMs/<varname>VM-name</varname>/Logs</filepath> by
    21         default.
    22       </p>
    23     <p>
    24         When starting a VM, the configuration file of the last run will
    25         be renamed to <filepath>.1</filepath>, up to
    26         <filepath>.3</filepath>. Sometimes when there is a problem, it
    27         is useful to have a look at the logs. Also when requesting
    28         support for <ph conkeyref="vbox-conkeyref-phrases/product-name"/>, supplying the corresponding log file
    29         is mandatory.
    30       </p>
    31     <p>
    32         For convenience, for each virtual machine, <ph conkeyref="vbox-conkeyref-phrases/vbox-mgr"/> can show
    33         these logs in a window. Select a virtual machine from the
    34         machine list on the left and click
    35         <b outputclass="bold">Logs</b> in the machine tools menu.
    36       </p>
    37     <p>
    38         The release log file, <filepath>VBox.log</filepath>, contains a
    39         wealth of diagnostic information, such as Host OS type and
    40         version, <ph conkeyref="vbox-conkeyref-phrases/product-name"/> version and build. It also includes a
    41         complete dump of the guest's configuration (CFGM), detailed
    42         information about the host CPU type and supported features,
    43         whether hardware virtualization is enabled, information about
    44         VT-x/AMD-V setup, state transitions (such as creating, running,
    45         paused, stopping), guest BIOS messages, Guest Additions
    46         messages, device-specific log entries and, at the end of
    47         execution, final guest state and condensed statistics.
    48       </p>
    49     <p>
    50         In case of crashes, it is very important to collect
    51         <i>crash dumps</i>. This is true for both host and
    52         guest crashes. For information about enabling core dumps on
    53         Linux, Oracle Solaris, and macOS systems, refer to the following
    54         core dump article on the <ph conkeyref="vbox-conkeyref-phrases/product-name"/> website:
    55       </p>
    56     <p><ph>http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Core_dump</ph>.
    57       </p>
    58     <p> You can also use <userinput>VBoxManage debugvm</userinput> to create a dump of a complete
    59       virtual machine. See <xref href="vboxmanage-debugvm.dita">VBoxManage debugvm</xref>. </p>

    61         For network related problems, it is often helpful to capture a
    62         trace of network traffic. If the traffic is routed through an
    63         adapter on the host, it is possible to use Wireshark or a
    64         similar tool to capture the traffic there. However, this often
    65         also includes a lot of traffic unrelated to the VM.
    66       </p>
    67     <p>
    68         <ph conkeyref="vbox-conkeyref-phrases/product-name"/> provides an ability to capture network traffic
    69         only on a specific VM's network adapter. Refer to the following

    176         The VM debugger supports symbolic debugging, although symbols
    177         for guest code are often not available. For Oracle Solaris
    178         guests, the <userinput>detect</userinput> command automatically
    179         determines the guest OS version and locates kernel symbols in
    180         guest's memory. Symbolic debugging is then available. For Linux
    181         guests, the <userinput>detect</userinput> commands also determines
    182         the guest OS version, but there are no symbols in the guest's
    183         memory. Kernel symbols are available in the file
    184         <filepath>/proc/kallsyms</filepath> on Linux guests. This file
    185         must be copied to the host, for example using
    186         <userinput>scp</userinput>. The <userinput>loadmap</userinput> debugger
    187         command can be used to make the symbol information available to
    188         the VM debugger. Note that the <filepath>kallsyms</filepath>
    189         file contains the symbols for the currently loaded modules. If
    190         the guest's configuration changes, the symbols will change as

    194         For all guests, a simple way to verify that the correct symbols
    195         are loaded is the <userinput>k</userinput> command. The guest is
    196         normally idling and it should be clear from the symbolic
    197         information that the guest operating system's idle loop is being
    198         executed.
    199       </p>
    200     <p>
    201         Another group of debugger commands is the set of
    202         <userinput>info</userinput> commands. Running <userinput>info
    203         help</userinput> provides complete usage information. The
    204         information commands provide ad-hoc data pertinent to various
    205         emulated devices and aspects of the VMM. There is no general
    206         guideline for using the <userinput>info</userinput> commands, the
    207         right command to use depends entirely on the problem being
    208         investigated. Some of the <userinput>info</userinput> commands are
    209         as follows:
    210       </p>
     100    <p>See the built-in <userinput>help</userinput> for other available commands.</p>
     101    <p>The VM debugger supports symbolic debugging, although symbols for guest code are often not available. For Oracle Solaris guests, the <userinput>detect</userinput> command automatically determines the guest OS version and locates kernel symbols in guest's memory. Symbolic debugging is then available. For Linux guests, the <userinput>detect</userinput> commands also determines the guest OS version, but there are no symbols in the guest's memory. Kernel symbols are available in the file <filepath>/proc/kallsyms</filepath> on Linux guests. This file must be copied to the host, for example using <userinput>scp</userinput>. The <userinput>loadmap</userinput> debugger command can be used to make the symbol information available to the VM debugger. Note that the <filepath>kallsyms</filepath> file contains the symbols for the currently loaded modules. If the guest's configuration changes, the symbols will change as well and must be updated.</p>

    8         Some Linux guests may cause a high CPU load even if the guest
    9         system appears to be idle. This can be caused by a high timer
    10         frequency of the guest kernel. Some Linux distributions, for
    11         example Fedora, ship a Linux kernel configured for a timer
    12         frequency of 1000Hz. We recommend to recompile the guest kernel
    13         and to select a timer frequency of 100Hz.
    14       </p>

    16         Linux kernels shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux, as well as
    17         kernels of related Linux distributions, such as CentOS and
    18         Oracle Linux, support a kernel parameter
    19         <i>divider=N</i>. Hence, such kernels support a
    20         lower timer frequency without recompilation. We suggest you add
    21         the kernel parameter <i>divider=10</i> to select a
    22         guest kernel timer frequency of 100Hz.

    8         Guest desktop services in guests running the X11 window system
    9         such as Oracle Solaris and Linux, are provided by a guest
    10         service called <userinput>VBoxClient</userinput>, which runs under
    11         the ID of the user who started the desktop session and is
    12         automatically started using the following command lines when

     18    <p>VRDP is a backward-compatible extension to Microsoft's Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP). As a result, you can use any standard RDP client to control the remote VM.</p>
    2119    <p>Even when the extension is installed, the VRDP server is disabled by default. It can easily be enabled on a
    2220      per-VM basis either from <ph conkeyref="vbox-conkeyref-phrases/vbox-mgr"/> in the <b outputclass="bold"
     
    2422        <userinput>VBoxManage</userinput> command, as follows: </p>
    2523    <pre xml:space="preserve">$ VBoxManage modifyvm <varname>VM-name</varname> --vrde on</pre>
    26     <p>By default, the VRDP server uses TCP port <codeph>3389</codeph>. You will need to change the default port if you
    27       run more than one VRDP server, since the port can only be used by one server at a time. You might also need to
    28       change it on Windows hosts since the default port might already be used by the RDP server that is built into
    29       Windows itself. Ports 5000 through 5050 are typically not used and might be a good choice. </p>
    30     <p>The port can be changed either in the <b outputclass="bold">Display</b> settings of the graphical user interface
    31       or with the <codeph>--vrde-port</codeph> option of the <userinput>VBoxManage modifyvm</userinput> command. You can
    32       specify a comma-separated list of ports or ranges of ports. Use a dash between two port numbers to specify a
    33       range. The VRDP server will bind to <i>one</i> of the available ports from the specified list. For example,
    34         <userinput>VBoxManage modifyvm <varname>VM-name</varname> --vrde-port 5000,5010-5012</userinput> configures the
    35       server to bind to one of the ports 5000, 5010, 5011, or 5012. See <xref href="vboxmanage-modifyvm.dita">VBoxManage
    36         modifyvm</xref>. </p>
     24    <p>The RDP server in the <ph conkeyref="vbox-conkeyref-phrases/product-name"/> extension pack supports only audio streams in format 22.05kHz stereo 16-bit. If the RDP client requests any other audio format there will be no audio.</p>

You will need to change the default port if you run more than one VRDP server, since the port can only be used by one server at a time.
