I can create and delete files and folders on this shared folder from inside Odoo's VM, so the shared folder is set up correctly for my user account there, but obviously Pgadmin3 is not using my account. I used Pgadmin3 (or 4?) to execute the sql to create the tablespace, but I get a permissions error. I would like to have my datastore on a virtual box shared folder which is a large hard drive.
It was an out-of-the-box all-in-one install using the deb file from Odoo which puts the PostgreSQL datastore inside my virtual disk. I run Ubuntu 16.04 host with Ubuntu 16.04 guest for Odoo. I thought about using Pgadmin3 (or 4) to issue CREATE TABLESPACE sql to create a new datastore and specify location other than the default and then simply restore my existing database to the new datastore. Hope this summary is helpful and saves time for searching of informations.I don't know if this belongs here or in a PostgreSQL forum somewhere, but this is related to my previous post of wanting to move my database to a different hardware. More Informations therefore can be found here: HOWTO: Use Shared Folders To the correct location and overwrite the old file. Afterwards move the file with sudo mv /home//boot.local /etc/rc.d/boot.local -f Since this requires root privileges I would recommend adding the line to the file, and saving the file afterwards somewhere else (for example /home/user/), where no root proviliges are required. In OpenSuse add following line to "/etc/rc.d/boot.local". Since the mounting of the shared folder has to be done everytime the system is restarted, you can do this automatically after the boot process.

How to use the downloaded opensuse.vdi file with VirtualBox is described here: Importing a VDI in VirtualBox OpenSuse already installed for vmware directly to download available here (1,3GB).Since I haven't found, after long searching, information regarding "How to set up a Shared Folder using OpenSuse in VirtualBox", I decided to summarize the process in here - hopefully it helps some others.
