Description
Steps:
1) Start VM
2) Do some work
3) Shutdown
After that some VMs always show the state "inaccessible". It is possible to remove it. Later on it is not possible to add this VM due to an error:
VBoxManage registervm /u00/HDD/W764.2015/W764.2015.vbox
VBoxManage: error: Could not find an open hard disk with UUID {9d2e777b-dc39-40fc-b1b8-8661dd13bd84}
VBoxManage: error: Details: code VBOX_E_OBJECT_NOT_FOUND (0x80bb0001), component VirtualBoxWrap, interface IVirtualBox, callee nsISupports
VBoxManage: error: Context: "OpenMachine(Bstr(a->argv[0]).raw(), machine.asOutParam())" at line 85 of file VBoxManageMisc.cpp
Workaround (not always working):
4) Use VBoxManage showhdinfo <virtualdisk vdi name>. (This command may produce no output, in this case registering VM is not possible.)
5) Add VM back if the previous command provided the information about vdi disk.
After repeating steps 1-3 VM becomes inaccessible again.
