[vbox-dev] Make a program that list all VBoxHeadless process, and VRDE port number, using internal protocol ?

[Oliver Loch]

Hi,

something like this should work:

#!/bin/bash

vms=$(vboxmanage list runningvms | sed -E 's/^\"(.*)\".*/\1/g');

for i in $vms; do

        read x _enabled x _address x _port x _multiconn x < <(vboxmanage showvminfo $i | grep -i vrde:);

        enabled=${_enabled%,};
        address=${_address%,};
        port=${_port%,}
        multicon=${_multiconn%,};
        echo "$enabled $address $port $multicon";

done
