Constraining Peripherals to Virtual PC

Hi,

Is it possible to constrain a set of peripherals to a specific virtual
pc. I would like to run several virtual pcs on the same host and assign
each virtual pc to a specific monitor, keyboard and mouse set. I was
wondering whether this is possible. Is it also possible to set virtual
pc to restart the virtual machine if a user was to shut it down.

Thanks in advance,

Mattdavis90

Other than RAM, CD drive, and serial port, no.

You need some kind of hardware sharing device to do that, of which
there are several, that isn't VPC's aim.

It's all up to the VM OS itself and you can set a policy that wouldn't
allow a user to fully shut it down. Stopping the user from shutting
down VPC itself is another matter.
