I would like to run a task (stop a running vm machine) before Jenkins starts the check-out.
The reason is: VM blocks access to some files I have to update via subversion.
Is this possible?

There are two plugins for controlling virtual machines, depending on whether you are using VirtualBox or VMWare.
I’m quite sure you can configure the pre-build step to be “Suspend” as shown in the images, at least for VMWare.
