Hi Klaus, thanks for the quick reply, and sorry for not giving this vital information: I'm running VirtualBox 4.3.10_Ubuntur93012 on Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS.

When I notice an error again with regard to hanging calls, what exactly shall I do to give you useful information? The last time it happened, two snapshot deletes were hanging at around 50%, which also caused VBoxManage list vms to hang. > Not sure about what you mean by "fails".

No, I'm not calling command with side effects simultaneously on the same VM, however, a VBoxManage vminfo might be called while the VM is changing its state. > I would prefer to investigate and properly fix the issue.

Me too; though I also need to stabilize our system to attend to other things. However, changing the setup to put 1 VM into one user account is also quite a lot of work, so I'll not do it for the time being. We'll continue to use the, so perhaps the error will occur again.
