Are you looking for Runtime.exec()? http://docs.oracle.com/javase/1.4.2/docs/api/java/lang/Runtime.html – Anonymoose Apr 16 '12 at 06:53

Have you considered http://labs.vmware.com/flings/vix-java-toolkit It claims
The VIX Java Toolkit allows Java developers to take advantage of the VMware VIX API. This is a powerful API that allows for performing in-guest operations on VMs running with vSphere, Workstation, Server, and Player. Java developers who are writing code with the vSphere/VI APIs will find this particularly useful as the vSphere API does not currently provide any functionality for interacting with the guest operating system. In addition, this is helpful for software testing as well as systems administration.
