Hi all,
I'm trying to create a VM with more than 8 NIC.
Referring to the API manual:
"The total number of adapters per machine is defined by the
ISystemProperties::getMaxNetworkAdapters property, so the maximum slot
number is one less than that property's value"
Because I'm using ChipsetType ICH9, a call to:
$VIRTUALBOX.SystemProperties.getMaxNetworkAdapters($ChipsetType_ICH9)
give me a result of 36 NIC… Great !
But, when I'm trying to create more than 8 NIC:
$ADAPTER=$SESSION.machine.getNetworkAdapter(8)
I've got an error message:
Argument slot is invalid (must be slot< RT_ELEMENTS(mNetworkAdapters)) »
How Can I configure more than 8 NIC ?
You can't. From what I can tell the implementation is very incomplete.
There is a reason why the chipset type ICH9 is clearly marked as
experimental in the documentation.
Klaus
Thanks,
Olivier
