Hi, I want to run serveral instances of VMs, all using the same VDI disk (stored at Read-Only NFS storage) at the same host.
I am using the --mtype multiattach and --mtype immutable types of attaching the drive. However, after creating and running the first machine, I am unable to create the second: /usr/local/bin/VBoxManage -q storageattach Free2 --storagectl SATA --port 0 --device 0 --type hdd --medium /mnt/tmp/FreeBSD-9.1-RC2.vdi --mtype immutable VBoxManage: error: Medium '/mnt/tmp/FreeBSD-9.1-RC2.vdi' is locked for reading by another task VBoxManage: error: Details: code VBOX_E_INVALID_OBJECT_STATE (0x80bb0007), component Medium, interface IMedium, callee nsISupports VBoxManage: error: Context: "COMSETTER(Type)(mediumType)" at line 660 of file VBoxManageStorageController.cpp VBoxManage: error: Failed to set the medium type But if I fristly create eg. 3 VMs, and them run them, everything is OK. And - of course, I am unable to add the 4th machine.. Is it expected behaviour ?
