hello,

 

do mean want retrieve information (including ip address, fqdn, os version, etc.) virtual machine?

 

well, information of guest os can retrieved directly, including fullyqualifieddomainname, osname, osversion, csdversion, osmajorversion, osminorversion, osbuildnumber,osplatformid, servicepackmajor, suitemask, producttype, processorarhitecture. these information located @ hklm\software\microsoft\virtual machine\auto.

 

if want retrieve other information guest os (e.g. ip address), need additional configurations:

 

in virtual machine, exact information want (e.g. ip address) , add information following registry location. location child partition share information parent partition.

 

hklm\software\microsoft\virtual machine\external

 

then, can retrieve information on parent partition.
