VirtualBox
- программа для запуска на одном компьютере нескольких виртуальных операционных
систем. VirtualBox - это удобный и функциональный инструмент для виртуализации,
рассчитанный как на корпоративных, так и на домашних пользователей. Программа
поддерживает много разных гостевых систем семейства Windows
(NT/2000/XP/2003/Vista), а также DOS, Linux (2.4 и 2.6) и OpenBSD. Как и в
других подобных приложениях, тут присутствует возможность запуска и остановки
гостевых ОС, настройки использования ресурсов компьютера, обмена данными между
основной и гостевой операционной системой, снятия скриншотов виртуальной системы
и многое другое.
Some of the features of VirtualBox are: •
Modularity. VirtualBox has an extremely modular design with well-defined
internal programming interfaces and a client/server design. This makes it easy
to control it from several interfaces at once: for example, you can start a
virtual machine in a typical virtual machine GUI and then control that machine
from the command line, or possibly remotely. VirtualBox also comes with a full
Software Development Kit: even though it is Open Source Software, you don't have
to hack the source to write a new interface for VirtualBox. • Virtual
machine descriptions in XML. The configuration settings of virtual machines are
stored entirely in XML and are independent of the local machines. Virtual
machine definitions can therefore easily be ported to other computers. •
Guest Additions for Windows and Linux. VirtualBox has special software that can
be installed inside Windows and Linux virtual machines to improve performance
and make integration much more seamless. Among the features provided by these
Guest Additions are mouse pointer integration and arbitrary screen solutions
(e.g. by resizing the guest window). • Shared folders. Like many other
virtualization solutions, for easy data exchange between hosts and guests,
VirtualBox allows for declaring certain host directories as "shared folders",
which can then be accessed from within virtual machines.
A number of
extra features are available with the full VirtualBox release only (see the
"Editions" page for details): • Virtual USB Controllers. VirtualBox
implements a virtual USB controller and allows you to connect arbitrary USB
devices to your virtual machines without having to install device specific
drivers on the host. • Remote Desktop Protocol. Unlike any other
virtualization software, VirtualBox fully supports the standard Remote Desktop
Protocol (RDP). A virtual machine can act as an RDP server, allowing you to
"run" the virtual machine remotely on some thin client that merely displays the
RDP data. • USB over RDP. With this unique feature, a virtual machine that
acts as an RDP server can still access arbitrary USB devices that are connected
on the RDP client. This way, a powerful server machine can virtualize a lot of
thin clients that merely need to display RDP data and have USB devices plugged
in.
