New features: - teleporting, from one host to another one: Live migration of VM, a kind of VMotion, but network oriented - experimental support of EFI (well, if you want to try to install MacOS and some rare EFI based linux) - network type can be changed while VM is running (NAT to Bridge, or opposite) - not new, but can be usefull: running VBox inside a zone (protecting VMS with SMF in the global zone ...)
Some known limitation: - There is no support for USB on Solaris 10 hosts. -- Experimental USB support for OpenSolaris/Nevada hosts (versions 124 and higher recommended). -- No ACPI information (battery status, power source) is reported to the guest. -- No support for using wireless with bridged networking User manual can be found here: http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/3.1.0/UserManual.pdf VirtualBox achitecture documentation: http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/VirtualBox_architecture As you can see, a nice GUI (Java/JavaFX ?) for remote management of VMs is still missing, clearly a developpement opportunity, especially for teleporting.
