Making Screenshots

In Virtuozzo, you can use the prlctl capture command to capture an image (or screenshot) of your virtual machine screen. You can take screenshots of running virtual machines only. The session below demonstrates how to take a screenshot of the MyVM virtual machine screen and save it to the /usr/screenshots/image1.png file:

1. Make sure that the virtual machine is running:

   # prlctl list

   STATUS IP_ADDR NAME

   running 10.10.10.101 101

   running 10.10.10.201 MyVM

2. Take the virtual machine screenshot:

   # prlctl capture MyVM --file /usr/screenshots/image1.png

3. Check that the image1.png file has been successfully created:

   # ls /usr/screenshots/

   image1.png
