bug in VBoxManage storageattach => Fixed in SVN

[Jared Bristow]

I just tried to run this command from the command line:

VBoxManage storageattach vmname --storagectl "SATA Controller" --device 0 --type hdd --medium /var/lib/vmware/vms/vmname/vmname.vmdk

Notably missing from the command is the --port option, which is required. The command did fail and printed out the Usage statement, but gave the error message "error: Success."

This messages is obviously less than helpful. The expected result is an error message stating that there is no port number specified. Also, it should not say "Success".

Note, the vm was created using the VBoxManage command, which is probably not the situation for most users, so this is a minor priority.

Thanks for this report, fixed in the next maintenance release.
