VBoxManage是VirtualBox命令行的接口。使用它可以从命令行操作VirtualBox。VBoxManage不仅支持所有从GUI界面的操作。还比GUI的支持更多的特性。它暴露虚拟引擎所有的特性，甚至包括GUI不支持的。

VBoxManage is the command-line interface to VirtualBox. With it, you can completely control VirtualBox from the command line of your host operating system. VBoxManage supports all the features that the graphical user interface gives you access to, but it supports a lot more than that.

VBoxManage list vms
显示所有注册到VirtualBox所有虚拟机

VBoxManage list runningvms
显示所有运行中的虚拟机

VBoxManage showvminfo "centos7"
