When a virtual machine is paused, the guest OS is stopped and the virtual machine process is 
removed from the CPU processes list. Guest operating system execution can be continued at any 
time. 

Pausing the guest OS is recommended if you want to leave the virtual machine for a short 
period of time. If you want to leave it for an extended period, and especially if you need to 
restart your primary OS, it is best to suspend of the VM. See Suspending/Resuming Virtual 
Machine (page 154). 

To pause a virtual machine: 

ƒ  Select Pause in the VM menu.  

When a virtual machine is in pause mode its console is darkened.  

To continue running the virtual machine do one of the following: 

ƒ  Click the Power On 

 button on the toolbar. 

ƒ  Select Continue in the VM menu. 

 

The state of the running Virtual Machine, and all of its applications, can be saved in order to 
continue working with the guest OS at a later time. This is called suspending the Virtual 
Machine. When suspending, the Virtual Machine state is saved to the hard disk in a .sav file. 
After saving, you may return to the saved Virtual Machine at any time and continue running the 
guest OS from the point where you stopped. 

To suspend a virtual machine: 

1  During guest OS execution do one of the following: 

ƒ  Click the Suspend 

button, 

ƒ  Select VM -> Suspend in menu. 

2  Progress of saving is displayed in the Please wait while virtual machine is suspending screen. 

When finished, the virtual machine property page is displayed.
