phpvirtualbox restore snapshots

nobody2311 · 19. Mai 2016

Hey guys,

I´ve got trouble with phpvirtualbox..
Is it possible to restore one or more snapshots in a new vm?

EDIT:
I made a backup of (only ) this files and would like to restore the snapshots into a new vm

Virtualbox doesn't have the capability of restoring a snapshot to a new VM. You could copy all of the files and import it as a new VM. Then roll back to the snapshot you want.

Thanks for your answer..

I found a solution here: https://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=24672 ==> "Sicherungspunkte klonen"
It´s possible to include a snapshot into an exist *.vdi file

1.) Download the whole vm folder to local drive (and the correct structur!)
2.) Download and open CloneVDI
3.) Select the snapshot, click "Proceed" and wait (e.g. 120GB - 2,5h)
4.) Upload the new *.vdi
5.) Start VM
