I tried to delete the vifo but I can't find any documentation on how to do this.

Can you please provide me with the command to delete the Vifo file ?

goto tools->system devices is there a blue tick next to the HBA?

 

 

Un check and the bind selected option button will allow you to save the new vfio file.

 

or from the cmdline you could do either of the following: 

 

nano  /boot/config/vfio-pci.cfg and just delete the text from the file and save. or rm  /boot/config/vfio-pci.cfg

For me the device didn't show up in tools > system devices, presumably because it had been removed from the system long ago. 

 

I tried Krusader, but it didn't have access to /boot and I didn't know if it was possible to change that.

This is what worked for me. Going into the command line and typing:

rm /boot/config/vfio-pci.cfg 

 

That file only had one line in it, so deleting the file was not a problem. Your setup may be different.

Checking a box on the system devices saving, and then removing and saving again will also rewrite the vfio file to match the system devices display.

Hello All

 

For me is now  working the VM Manager

I have manually removed the VIB file as suggested and restarted the Server.

After Restart I was able to start the VM with no problem and I have tried to create a VM.

after I filled up the VM profile with the latest settings I tried to create the VM and got a new surprise 

The GUI was unresponsive. I considered that I made a mistake in configuration and I may have assigned the same IP address to the new VM.

After rebooting the server and rebuilding the Parity I tried again to create a VM and all went smoothly and with no problems.

 

Thank you for your Support
