Quickly Switch Hardware for the same VM


Recommended Posts

 

 

i saw spaceinvader's video of quick switching using the same gpu for different vms

 

what about same vm with different hardware? 

 

will get uuid error if you create more than 1 vm using the same uuid.

 

 

VM1 with Hardware setup #1 (slot1gpu)

VM1 with hardware setup #2 (slot3gpu/usb)

 

 

is there a way with to quickly switch hardware? with a plugin or app..

Why not create a second VM with the alternate hardware that points to the same disk / vdisk.

As long as you shut down one before starting the other, it would work and windows would just reconfigure.

 

I don't know of a way to hot swap PCI-E devices, you wouldn't do that with bare metal install
