日常工作中，由于条件以及成本的限制，我们会在自己本地电脑上安装虚拟机装服务器系统，来满足自己工作中对服务器的需求，但是很多时候，我们自己的电脑关机或者重启后，虚拟机并不会自行启动，需要我们手动启动虚拟机，如果我们只有一两台虚拟机，那没什么，启动很快，但是，如果我们有很多台虚拟机呢？10 台，20 台，甚至更多，难道我们还要手动一个个开机吗？那真是太让人头疼，又太浪费时间。下面，我们就讲下，如何让虚拟机在我们自己的主机开机时自动启动。
一、VMware workstation 虚拟机开机自启动的原理
要说 VMware workstation 虚拟机开机自启动，在 VMware workstation 图形界面是找不到设置方法的，但是图形界面找不到设置方法，不代表它就没有设置方法。
要设置开机自启动，首先，我们得了解下 VMware workstation 所提供的命令行工具 vmrun 。
1、我们进入到 VMware workstation 的安装目录，找一下 vmrun.exe 文件，如下图，正式这个工具，为我们提供了虚拟机的自启动方法。
2、将 VMware workstation 的安装目录添加到系统的环境变量，如下图，按照途中的顺序，依次操作即可
注意：在第 5 步时，需要找到自己的 VMware workstation 的安装目录，然后添加到这里。
3、在 DOS 界面中查看 vmrun 命令的语法格式及参数

①、验证标志(AUTHENTICATION-FLAGS)：
-T 代表目标类型，ws 表示工作站(即 Workstation )，一般使用此参数即可，其他很少使用，就不做解释了。当然还有 server、esx、vc 等等，这里没有列出。
②、电源指令(POWER COMMANDS)：
start：开启虚拟机
stop：关闭虚拟机
reset：重置虚拟机
suspend：挂起虚拟机
③、快照指令(SNAPSHOT COMMANDS)：
listSnapshots：列出虚拟机的快照数量及名称
snapshot：为虚拟机创建快照
deleteSnapshot：删除虚拟机的快照
revertToSnapshot：从一个快照恢复虚拟机
④、常用命令(GENERAL COMMANDS)：
list：列出正在运行的虚拟机的数量及名称
upgradevm：升级虚拟机的文件格式，虚拟硬件
installTools：在 Guest 中安装工具
checkToolsState：检查工具状态
deleteVM：删除一个虚拟机
clone：克隆虚拟机
这里只介绍这么多命令，其他的命令很少用到，就不多做解释。
言归正传，我们要设置虚拟机开机自启动，就要使用上面 start 命令。那么，此命令如何使用呢，格式时这样的：
vmrun -T ws start "c:\my VMs\myVM.vmx"
"c:\my VMs\myVM.vmx" 该目录为虚拟机的工作目录
我们可以在这条命令后面加上 nogui ，表示无图形界面启动，而默认的启动模式是 gui 模式，即有图形界面启动。
vmrun -T ws start "c:\my VMs\myVM.vmx" nogui
最后，我们将该命令修改为自己的虚拟机工作目录后写到批处理文件中（如下图），添加开机启动脚本或者计划任务。
@echo off & setlocal enabledelayedexpansion vmrun -T ws start "I:\Documents\Virtual Machines\centos\centos.vmx" nogui
附上关机脚本：
@echo off & setlocal enabledelayedexpansion
vmrun list > vmlist.txt
for %%i in (vmlist.txt) do (
set "f=%%i"
for /f "usebackq delims=" %%j in ("!f!") do set/a n+=1
for /f "delims=" %%m in ('"type "!f!"|more /E +1 & cd. 2^>!f!"') do set/a x+=1&if !x! leq !n! echo;%%m>>!f!
set/a n=0,x=0
)
for /f "delims=" %%a in (vmlist.txt) do (
vmrun -T ws stop "%%a" nogui
)
pause二、Windows 中设置虚拟机开机自启动
在 Windows 中设置虚拟机开机自启动又两种办法
①、用计划任务来实现。
创建计划任务：
如图，我们将计划任务的设置为使用最高权限运行，触发器设置为在系统启动时触发，而操作是启动批处理脚本。
计划任务创建完成后，我们可以将自己的主机重启，看看我们的虚拟机是否有自动开机。
②、用组策略来实现
在 <运行> 中输入 gpedit.msc 打开组策略，如下图
在组策略中，依次选择 <用户配置> <Windows 设置> <脚本(登陆/注销)>，双击 <登陆>，如下图
在 <登陆 属性> 对话框中添加我们之前写好的启动脚本即可，如下图
设置完之后，我们重启主机，再看看虚拟机有没有启动。
三、总结
在日常工作中，我们解决问题的办法可能不止一种，但往往由于我们所学知识的局限性性，导致我们的思路会很单一，因此，我们就要通过不断的学习，来拓宽我们视界，才能更好的提高我们的深获质量。
