How would you know if the drive was having trouble? Also does it matter if it is the parity drive or another drive with the issue? Thanks.

I can't figure out what the parity drive does for me anyway since it is not a replacement for taking backups, so I'd rather have the extra space and performance I think.

hard to guess which cpu is least used when creating a new vm

ok so if unraid 6.9.2 is based on 14.2 then why is glib only 2.46 but qemu 5.1.0 wants 2.48: pkg-config --modversion glib-2.0 2.46.2

I have a slack 14.2 box, installed python3, trying to build qemu (5.1.0) so I can get ppp64 on unraid. ./configure --target-list=ppc64-softmmu --enable-curses --disable-gtk && make ERROR: glib-2.48 gthread-2.0 is required to compile QEMU But slack has glib2 already and /usr/lib64/libgthread-2.0.so.0.4600.2

yes I know. but it is bad practice, especially first

Why is dot in root's PATH? root@Tower:~# echo $PATH .:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin

does installing slackware packages survive a reboot?

Oh maybe renaming the new one when it is created... I will try that I guess

Renaming the vm seems to only change the xml and not anything in kvm. I am scared to do it, seems to not be good.

Yeah but I wanted the same version

I want to make my own plugin like nerdtools but with apps not supported by that. How do I compile and package things for some unraid version so they can be installed similar to nerdtools?

I want to add my solaris 10 and 11 templates to the add vm screen, how can I do that? Is there a way to submit them to be added so other people can use them too? If you need to manually modify the XML (to change the nic) do I need to make/provide a userscript to do that?

How do I make a second Big Sur VM? Can you have more than one of the same macos version? btw Monterey installed fine for me.

Well of course no answers on the forum again. I finally gave solaris another shot and got 10 and 11 both running (they call them x86 but really they are 64 bit). There are a lot of usb errors so hopefully you don't need usb. I chose the regular US English keyboard if it asked that. For both I did Add VM. Then I chose something linux and sadly I can't remember what. I thought I chose redhat but I have a tux icon there for both so maybe I chose that first one, just "Linux". For solaris 11: OVMF bios i440fx-5.1 chipset cdrom bus IDE primary bus IDE qcow2 1536 mb And you have to go to XML view and change virtio-net to e1000. For solaris 10: For some reason I gave it 2560 mb ram, I think I got an error and increased it. After the install you can probably reduce it. Everything else the same as sol 11 but I had to use Seabios bios instaed of OVMF Hope this helps someone.

I think is is how to build it: ./configure --target-list=ppc64-softmmu && make

Sounds like arm is being added. Maybe you could also add power7: qemu-system-ppc64 -M pseries (really need this) and maybe qemu-system-ppc and qemu-system-s390x if not too much trouble and maybe sparc64, and someone asked for risc-v in another thread. Thanks!

Is this where we can request more nerdtools? I would really like to have some qemu emulations, for sure power7 support: qemu-system-ppc64 -M pseries If there is some other way to add this myself please let me know. Thanks!

Sorry to stump you guys with such a hard one. I edited the template and changed virtio to e1000. heh

After many failed attempts I finally got solaris 11 installed. Now I need an e1000 to get this VM on the network. How do I change the nic type?

ok, that seemed to work thanks

Hey my cache drive disappeared, I reseated it, now it is unassigned. How can I make it the cache drive again and not lose everything? All my dockers and VMs are on there. Thanks!

I had to reboot into recovery (big sur) to disable sip and now when I boot it sits there until I choose the boot disk. How can I make it boot automatically again?
