I upgraded to 6.2.0-rc4 and no changes. Still can't claim server. It now does show that an update is available but if I try to update I get Error: layers from manifest don't match image configuration

Also, when I am using the docker it asks me to manually update the the newest version. Not sure if that is related as I was under the impression this docker would autoupdate to the latest version by itself.

I am having the same issue that kamhighway had at the start of August. I installed using Community Applications I added volume mappings of /media /mnt/user/Media/ and /config /mnt/cache/appdata/ The docker seems to be working except I can't claim the server. I keep getting an error saying there was a problem signing into to Plex. When kamhighway had this issue his reported resolution was upgrading unRaid to one of the RC versions but the comment directly under that post claimed that could not be the issue. I've tried using the Plex Server log file -- a little out of my level but I believe I am getting a 406 Not Acceptable error. Can anyone give me some assistance?

Glad that the problem is solved, but didn't CA show you under every icon that docker was not enabled? (Plugins would still be installable via CA) Trying to see if I have a bug here or not. It was a while ago so I can't be certain. There definitely was some text but I can't remember what. If it said Not Enabled I might have interpreted that to refer to the docker itself. I don't think it said Docker system not enabled as that would have been obvious to me.

Thank you. I hadn't. I assumed the example text in the box was the default location. I knew it was something obvious. Thank you everyone for the help

ADD what? A docker -- isn't there supposed to be an ADD button or some way to install the docker? That would be under the docker tab. Maybe you need to enable dockers in your settings to display the tab. It was disabled but I found it and enabled it before posting my question but nothing changed. There currently is no docker tab.

ADD what? A docker -- isn't there supposed to be an ADD button or some way to install the docker?

I did a quick search and nothing immediately came up and I realize this is probably something really stupid on my part but why don't I have the option to ADD?

Changing the XML required a shutdown of the VM -- problem with the passthrough appeared. Shutdown unRaid and then restarted didn't help. Second reboot and all was fine. I'll have to try the qemu:arg method because even though this isn't a VM I reboot often having to shut down the entire unRaid system every time I do and reboot it multiple times is not ideal.

Thanks. I have no idea how that happened with the wrong CPUs -- obviously they are supposed to match. Will fix that.

Still having issues with USB passthrough -- everything was fine for 17 days but for reasons I can't figure out my VM suddenly changed to a strange IP (something that has happened before) resulting in lost connectivity and the only way to fix it is to reboot the unRaid machine. When I reboot the unRaid the USB passthough does not work. I reboot unRaid a couple of time and edit the XML even though I'm not making any changes and suddenly after a few reboots it starts to work again.

Thank you. Seems to be working. I still can't plug in a USB hub and a USB keyboard but I think that might be a interference issue rather than a pass-through issue. Keyboard plugged into hub works fine now so I'm good.

I am having a lot of issues trying to pass-through / PCI-Stub an entire USB 3.0 card. 04:00.0 USB controller: ASMedia Technology Inc. Device 1242 So this is my syslinux default /syslinux/menu.c32 menu title Lime Technology prompt 0 timeout 50 label unRAID OS menu default kernel /bzimage append initrd=/bzroot append isolcpus=11,12,13,14,15,27,28,29,30,31 initrd=/bzroot [b] pci-stub.ids=2109:0812[/b] label unRAID OS Safe Mode (no plugins) kernel /bzimage append initrd=/bzroot unraidsafemode label Memtest86+ kernel /memtest I add to the VM's XML files <hostdev mode='subsystem' type='pci' managed='yes'> <driver name='vfio'/> <source> <address domain='0x0000' bus='0x04' slot='0x00' function='0x0'/> </source> </hostdev> The USB device doesn't show up in USB Devices under System Devices but still shows under PCI devices so I think I have the PCI-stub part right but the USB controller is still giving me issues so I want to confirm this is all correct? My issue is that as soon as I plug anything into the second USB port of on the card the whole thing stops working.

Which OS are you running? My issues appear to have been fixed by going from Win7 to Win10 with the latest VirtIO drivers. I am using Windows 10 and it appears that I can reboot the VM from Windows and the USB works but if I shut the VM down from unRaid when I start it up again the USB pass-through does not work until I reboot unRaid and add the changes to the XML file. I can live with that especially since I think if I reboot unRaid without starting the VM I won't need to manually add the changes to XML. The VM is never shut down so this isn't a major issue.

Thank you. I'll use OMVF in the future but for this VM it is just used for general productivity applications so doesn't need every ounce of performance. The main issue was that pre-pinning / assignment the sound card didn't work properly and that is no longer the case so I am happy. Only thing left to do is get the USB card to pass-through after reboots. Currently it only works after a complete unRaid reboot.

Creating an identical template but with OVMF instead of Seabios led to a blank screen. Not sure if that was because of a failed GPU pass-through or if the machine itself was not booting. That said once I made the change to Syslinux gridrunner pointed out and I fixed the really dumb mistake I was making with cputune the VM boots using Seabios and the sound issue is fixed (it no longer garbles the bass part of audio). Would there be any benefit in continuing to try to get it from Seabios to OVMF?

You can just start a new template and choose the vdisk of the vm and it should work. Oh.. ok that is simple enough. I also just figured out that my cputune is way off and I feel kind of stupid for not seeing it right away. Thanks everyone for the help

Adding it manually is not a problem but I don't know if this will fix my situation. I bought a PCIe USB card just for the VM. Nothing else is going to use it. This is what I am adding to the XML <hostdev mode='subsystem' type='pci' managed='yes'> <driver name='vfio'/> <source> <address domain='0x0000' bus='0x04' slot='0x00' function='0x0'/> </source> </hostdev> Just above the </devices> tag. On a fresh reboot of the entire unRaid machine this successfully passes the USB controller sometimes but not always. If the VM is rebooted it stops working. On a fresh reboot the PCIe USB card is listed in System Devices in the PCI devices and USB Devices list. Once the VM is booted it disappears from the USB devices list and never returns even if the VM is shutdown I really can't figure this out. Stuff that never works I know I'm doing something wrong but stuff that works sometimes and not others even when I do the exact same thing is very frustrating.

Thank you. I realized after that my VM is Seabios rather than OVMF and I haven't been able to find any way to switch it. Will this still work or do I ave to start over?

This is definitely an issue.. if I reboot the VM the <cputune> <vcpupin vcpu='11' cpuset='27'/> <vcpupin vcpu='12' cpuset='28'/> <vcpupin vcpu='13' cpuset='29'/> <vcpupin vcpu='14' cpuset='30'/> <vcpupin vcpu='15' cpuset='31'/> <emulatorpin cpuset='0,16'/> </cputune> becomes <cputune> <emulatorpin cpuset='0,16'/> </cputune> and while the VM boots it only has one virtual CPU that it is using at 100%. On the initial boot after I manually edit the cputune section the machine boots with 10 cores like it should

Sorry to dredge up an old post. I just added pci-stubs to my config, and it didn't change anything. Rebooting the VM (or shutting it down and starting it from the GUI) makes all the USB devices on the card I passedthrough disappear. Very strange, but probably just a quirk of my hardware. I have the same issue. Once the VM reboots I can't pass the USB card to it. If I go to Tools - System Devices the USB card is still present in PCI devices but it disappears from USB Devices I am using 6.1.9 have no tried PCI-Stub yet. Do you need to be on 6.2 for PCI-Stub to work or does it work for 6.1.9 as well?

Looking at it all the vcpupin lines are missing even though I know I had them in there when I started the VM. VM is booted fine and now looking at XML and they are missing. I wasn't really having an issue with performance but my hope was that this would fix the sound issues I'm having but no luck in that respect.

thank you

Is there a guide on how to "PCI-Stub" a USB controller? I think I have the same issue as mentioned -- I pass my USB controller to a Windows 10 VM and all works fine. Then after a reboot the lines for passing though the USB controller are missing from the XML file and the USB controller no longer works. I can't remember if this happens every reboot of the VM or just randomly on some reboots.

I'm going to attempt this tomorrow. Because this involves messing with files on the boot usb drive I want to be 100% certain that I got this. The append isolcpus=2,3,6,7 initrd=/bzroot this is just a line that I add to syslinux.cfg using any text editor?
