Sorry, I can't find anything in the docs that says how to control a VM from the command line. Can someone point me to the command list and how to set up the path for the Terminal?
 
prlctl start /Users/beige/Documents/Parallels/Microsoft\ Windows\ XP.pvm/winxp.hdd/winxp.hdd, I get "The Microsoft Windows XP.pvm/ virtual machine does not exist."

Am I missing something? The help file in the command line utility doesn't tell you what file to launch.
 
while I have not yet tried it, typing prlctl and hitting enter gives quite a bit of info and the help file has much more info. for example, how to start, stop, resume & list VM's are here:
