To pause the VM, you typically need to use the management interface or command line tools provided by your virtualization platform. Here are some general methods:
-
Using Command Line (for VirtualBox):
VBoxManage controlvm "VM Name" pause -
Using Command Line (for VMware):
vmrun -T ws pause "Path to VM.vmx" -
Using Management Interface:
- If you are using a cloud service or a specific VM management interface, look for a "Pause" option in the VM settings or controls.
Make sure to replace "VM Name" or "Path to VM.vmx" with the actual name or path of your VM.
