How could we close GUI session in virtual box without shutting down the virtual machine. I have a lot of Linux instances I only need to connect to one of them.

Do you want to change to a different terminal? Ctrl-alt-F1 is your friend. – Robert Jan 6 at 8:07
No, I want to close the GUI session and the VM doesn't shut down. Like what we do in xen or kvm. – Majid Azimi Jan 6 at 8:10

I asked this question in ask.fedora:

Don't open a GUI session in the first place, use the headless version of VirtualBox:

Otherwise, when you close your session, you close all the programs you were running inside, including the hypervisor.
