Oracle Applications-VirtualBox UUID Problem

System environment:

Operating System: Mac OS 10.10.3

Application: VirtualBox

Faults:

When using a previously installed VirtualBox virtual machine, prompt "UUID already exists... "

Similar to the following picture tips:

In MAC OS system workaround, modify UUID via VirtualBox tool:

rirunhongtekiMacBook-Pro:~ root# find / -name "win2008.vdi"

find: /dev/fd/3: Not a directory

find: /dev/fd/4: Not a directory

/Volumes/Macintosh HD/Users/ellenli2005/VB/win2008/win2008.vdi

UUID modification tool:

rirunhongtekiMacBook-Pro:~ root# VBoxManage

Modify UUID:

rirunhongtekiMacBook-Pro:~ root# VBoxManage internalcommands sethduuid "/Volumes/Macintosh HD/Users/ellenli2005/VB/win2008/win2008.vdi"

UUID changed to: 88e9faad-0127-4ec1-9526-5a087d277b37

rirunhongtekiMacBook-Pro:~ root#

After the modification is complete, you can use the existing virtual machine hard disk!
