Hey all!
I'm using the VirtualBox COM API to start/stop/control a bunch of VMs
using a Python script.
A functionality I don't get to work is change the properties of a
network interface programmatically while the VM is running.
The same functionality works using the commandline tool 'vboxmanage
controlvm':
> vboxmanage controlvm VMNAME setlinkstate1 off
In Python this code doesn't have any effect on the running machine:
mgr = vboxapi.VirtualBoxManager(None, None)
session = mgr.getSessionObject(vm.vbox)
VBOX_INFO = VirtualBoxReflectionInfo(False)
vm.machine.lockMachine(session, vboxapi.VBOX_INFO.LockType_Shared)
adapter = session.machine.getNetworkAdapter(1)
adapter.cableConnected = False
session.unlockMachine()
Does this have something to do with the way the session I lock the
session? I tried vboxshell.py with the same outcome.
Thanks in advance! :)
Armin
