Michael, I mean saving the guest vm states. You can test it easily on windows XP guest. (I use Vista/Windows 7 host). (1) on guest: vboxcontrol guestproperty wait myprop then close vm saving state start vm, and (2) on host: vboxmanage guestproperty set myprop 123 You will note that vm waiting process never returns. - Huihong
