VBoxManage modifyvm

--name <name>: Changes the VM's name and can be used to rename the internal virtual machine files, as described in Section 8.7, "VBoxManage createvm".

--groups <group>, ...: Changes the group membership of a VM. Groups always start with a / and can be nested. By default VMs are in group /.

--description <desc>: Changes the VM's description, which is a way to record details about the VM in a way which is meaningful for the user. The GUI interprets HTML formatting, the command line allows arbitrary strings potentially containing multiple lines.

--ostype <ostype>: Specifies what guest operating system is supposed to run in the VM. To learn about the various identifiers that can be used here, use VBoxManage list ostypes.

--iconfile <filename>: Specifies the absolute path on the host file system for the Oracle VM VirtualBox icon to be displayed in the VM.

--memory <memorysize>: Sets the amount of RAM, in MB, that the virtual machine should allocate for itself from the host. See Section 1.7, "Creating Your First Virtual Machine".

--pagefusion on|off: Enables and disables the Page Fusion feature. Page Fusion is disabled by default. The Page Fusion feature minimises memory duplication between VMs with similar configurations running on the same host. See Section 4.10.2, "Page Fusion".

--vram <vramsize>: Sets the amount of RAM that the virtual graphics card should have. See Section 3.6, "Display Settings".

--acpi on|off and --ioapic on|off: Determines whether the VM has ACPI and I/O APIC support. See Section 3.5.1, "Motherboard Tab".

--pciattach <host PCI address [@ guest PCI bus address]>: Attaches a specified PCI network controller on the host to a specified PCI bus on the guest.

--pcidetach <host PCI address>: Detaches a specified PCI network controller on the host from the attached PCI bus on the guest.

--hardwareuuid <uuid>: The UUID presented to the guest through memory tables (DMI/SMBIOS), hardware, and guest properties. By default this is the same as the VM UUID. This setting is useful when cloning a VM. Teleporting takes care of this automatically.

--cpus <cpucount>: Sets the number of virtual CPUs for the virtual machine, see Section 3.5.2, "Processor Tab". If CPU hot-plugging is enabled, this then sets the maximum number of virtual CPUs that can be plugged into the virtual machines.

--cpuhotplug on|off: Enables CPU hot-plugging. When enabled, virtual CPUs can be added to and removed from a virtual machine while it is running. See Section 9.4, "CPU Hot-Plugging".

--plugcpu|unplugcpu <id>: If CPU hot-plugging is enabled, this setting adds or removes a virtual CPU on the virtual machine. <id> specifies the index of the virtual CPU to be added or removed and must be a number from 0 to the maximum number of CPUs configured with the --cpus option. CPU 0 can never be removed.

--cpuexecutioncap <1-100>: Controls how much CPU time a virtual CPU can use. A value of 50 implies a single virtual CPU can use up to 50% of a single host CPU.

--triplefaultreset on|off: Enables resetting of the guest instead of triggering a Guru Meditation. Some guests raise a triple fault to reset the CPU so sometimes this is desired behavior. Works only for non-SMP guests.

--apic on|off: Enables and disables I/O APIC. With I/O APIC, operating systems can use more than 16 interrupt requests (IRQs) thus avoiding IRQ sharing for improved reliability. This setting is enabled by default. See Section 3.5.1, "Motherboard Tab".

--x2apic on|off: Enables and disables CPU x2APIC support. CPU x2APIC support helps operating systems run more efficiently on high core count configurations, and optimizes interrupt distribution in virtualized environments. This setting is enabled by default. Disable this setting when using host or guest operating systems that are incompatible with x2APIC support.

--paravirtprovider none|default|legacy|minimal|hyperv|kvm: Specifies which paravirtualization interface to provide to the guest operating system. Specifying none explicitly turns off exposing any paravirtualization interface. The option default selects an appropriate interface when starting the VM, depending on the guest OS type. This is the default option chosen when creating new VMs. The legacy option is used for VMs which were created with older Oracle VM VirtualBox versions and will pick a paravirtualization interface when starting the VM with Oracle VM VirtualBox 5.0 and newer. The minimal provider is mandatory for Mac OS X guests. kvm and hyperv are recommended for Linux and Windows guests respectively. These options are explained in Section 10.5, "Paravirtualization Providers".

--paravirtdebug <keyword=value> [,<keyword=value> ...]: Specifies debugging options specific to the paravirtualization provider configured for this VM. See the provider specific options in Section 9.29, "Paravirtualized Debugging" for a list of supported keyword-value pairs for each provider.

--nestedpaging on|off: If hardware virtualization is enabled, this additional setting enables or disables the use of the nested paging feature in the processor of your host system. See Section 10.3, "Hardware Virtualization" and Section 13.4.1, "CVE-2018-3646".

--largepages on|off: If hardware virtualization and nested paging are enabled, for Intel VT-x only, an additional performance improvement of up to 5% can be obtained by enabling this setting. This causes the hypervisor to use large pages to reduce TLB use and overhead.

--vtxvpid on|off: If hardware virtualization is enabled, for Intel VT-x only, this additional setting enables or disables the use of the tagged TLB (VPID) feature in the processor of your host system. See Section 10.3, "Hardware Virtualization".

--vtxux on|off: If hardware virtualization is enabled, for Intel VT-x only, this setting enables or disables the use of the unrestricted guest mode feature for executing your guest.

--nested-hw-virt on|off: If hardware virtualization is enabled, this setting enables or disables passthrough of hardware virtualization features to the guest. See Section 9.33, "Nested Virtualization".

--accelerate3d on|off: If the Guest Additions are installed, this setting enables or disables hardware 3D acceleration. See Section 4.5.1, "Hardware 3D Acceleration (OpenGL and Direct3D 8/9)".

--accelerate2dvideo on|off: If the Guest Additions are installed, this setting enables or disables 2D video acceleration. See Section 4.5.2, "Hardware 2D Video Acceleration for Windows Guests".

--chipset piix3|ich9: By default, Oracle VM VirtualBox emulates an Intel PIIX3 chipset. Usually there is no reason to change the default setting unless this is required to relax some of its constraints. See Section 3.5.1, "Motherboard Tab".

You can influence the BIOS logo that is displayed when a virtual machine starts up with a number of settings. By default, an Oracle VM VirtualBox logo is displayed.

With --bioslogofadein on|off and --bioslogofadeout on|off, you can determine whether the logo should fade in and out, respectively.

With --bioslogodisplaytime <msec> you can set how long the logo should be visible, in milliseconds.

With --bioslogoimagepath <imagepath> you can replace the image that is shown with your own logo. The image must be an uncompressed 256 color BMP file without color space information (Windows 3.0 format). The image must not be bigger than 640 x 480.

--biosbootmenu disabled|menuonly|messageandmenu: Specifies whether the BIOS enables the user to select a temporary boot device. The menuonly option suppresses the message, but the user can still press F12 to select a temporary boot device.

--biosapic x2apic|apic|disabled: Specifies the firmware APIC level to be used. Options are: x2apic, apic or disabled (no apic or x2apic) respectively.

Note that if x2apic is specified and x2APIC is unsupported by the VCPU, biosapic downgrades to apic, if supported. Otherwise biosapic downgrades to disabled. Similarly, if apic is specified, and APIC is unsupported, a downgrade to disabled results.

--biossystemtimeoffset <ms>: Specifies a fixed time offset, in milliseconds, of the guest relative to the host time. If the offset is positive, the guest time runs ahead of the host time.

--biospxedebug on|off: Enables or disables additional debugging output when using the Intel PXE boot ROM. The output is written to the release log file. See Section 12.1.2, "Collecting Debugging Information".

--system-uuid-le on|off: Enables or disables representing the system UUID in little endian form. The default value is on for new VMs. For old VMs the setting is off to keep the content of the DMI/SMBIOS table unchanged, which can be important for Windows license activation.

--boot<1-4> none|floppy|dvd|disk|net: Specifies the boot order for the virtual machine. There are four slots, which the VM will try to access from 1 to 4, and for each of which you can set a device that the VM should attempt to boot from.

--nicspeed<1-N> <kbps>: Only has an effect if generic networking has been enabled for a particular virtual network card. See the --nic option. This mode enables access to rarely used networking sub-modes, such as VDE network or UDP Tunnel. This option specifies the throughput rate in KBps.

--nicbootprio<1-N> <priority>: Specifies the order in which NICs are tried for booting over the network, using PXE. The priority is an integer in the 0 to 4 range. Priority 1 is the highest, priority 4 is low. Priority 0, which is the default unless otherwise specified, is the lowest.

Note that this option only has an effect when the Intel PXE boot ROM is used.

--nicpromisc<1-N> deny|allow-vms|allow-all: Enables you to specify how promiscuous mode is handled for the specified VM virtual network card. This setting is only relevant for bridged networking. deny, the default setting, hides any traffic not intended for the VM. allow-vms hides all host traffic from the VM, but allows the VM to see traffic to and from other VMs. allow-all removes this restriction completely.

--nicbandwidthgroup<1-N> none|<name>: Adds and removes an assignment of a bandwidth group for the specified virtual network interface. Specifying none removes any current bandwidth group assignment from the specified virtual network interface. Specifying <name> adds an assignment of a bandwidth group to the specified virtual network interface.

--teleporterport <port>, --teleporteraddress <address>: These settings must be used with --teleporter. They specify the port and address the virtual machine should listen to in order to receive a teleporting request sent from another virtual machine. <port> can be any free TCP/IP port number, such as 6000. <address> can be any IP address or hostname and specifies the TCP/IP socket to bind to. The default is 0.0.0.0, which means any address.

--teleporterpassword <password>: If this optional setting is used, then the teleporting request will only succeed if the source machine specifies the same password as the one given with this command.

--teleporterpasswordfile <password>: If this optional setting is used, then the teleporting request will only succeed if the source machine specifies the same password as the one specified in the file give with this command. Use stdin to read the password from stdin.

--cpuid <leaf> <eax> <ebx> <ecx> <edx>: Advanced users can use this setting before a teleporting operation, to restrict the virtual CPU capabilities that Oracle VM VirtualBox presents to the guest operating system. This must be run on both the source and the target machines involved in the teleporting and will then modify what the guest sees when it executes the CPUID machine instruction. This might help with misbehaving applications that wrongly assume that certain CPU capabilities are present. The meaning of the parameters is hardware dependent, refer to the AMD or Intel processor documentation.

--tracing-enabled on|off: Enables the tracebuffer. This consumes some memory for the tracebuffer and adds extra overhead.

--tracing-config <config-string>: Enables tracing configuration. In particular, this defines which group of tracepoints are enabled.
