VMware虚拟机无法从命令行恢复

Question

我在Ubuntu 10.10上运行VMWare Workstation.我有一系列虚拟机,我每周都会克隆一下.

我编写了一个bash脚本,循环遍历每个虚拟机,轻轻地挂起它,克隆它,然后尝试恢复它.

问题是,VM没有恢复,所以我必须手动恢复它们.我试图找出如何修改我编写的脚本以确保VM恢复.我已经包含了脚本和生成的日志文件的示例,显示了错误消息.

#!/bin/bash

## Purpose:     Perform full backups of Virtual Machines
##      Running under VMWare Workstation

## Script won't run if the /nas directory doesn't exist
## The /nas directory is a mounted Buffalo Terastation
## Check /etc/fstab if this mountpoint is broken
   BACKUPDEST="/nas"

## No need to modify
   HOST=`hostname`
   DATEFILE=`/bin/date +%G%m%d`

## Run Command to find list of VM names:
## this will only be the name of the vm, no path and no .vmx
   VMLIST=`vmrun list | grep '/' | cut -d'/' -f3 | cut -d'.' -f1`

## Initialize Counter variable used to cycle through VMs in VMARRAY variable
   COUNTER=1

## Run Command to find list of VM Names and then store them in an Array:
## This will include full pathnames
   VMARRAY=( `vmrun list | grep '/'` )

你可以使用nogui参数来启动命令,例如:

vmrun start yourmachine.vmx nogui
