    ***GUIDE*** Passing Through Network Controllers to unRAID 6 Virtual Machines

    in VMs

    Posted · Edited by willi_jan9393

    Hey guys,

     

    i try to passthrough my nic to a win 10 vm.

      

    2b:00.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82574L Gigabit Network Connection

8086:10d3

    These are the details about my nic.

     

    When I start the VM there is the following error:

    internal error: Unknown PCI header type '127' for device '0000:2b:00.0'

     

    What can I do? 

     

    MB ist an ASRock Rack X470D4U with a Ryzen 7 2700.

     

    Thank you very much for your help.

    Looks more like a a router problem, not leasing a DHCP address, but some user have a timing issue with current Unraid, see if running this helps:

      

    
inet restart

     

    That was the solution! Thank you very much.

     

    Now it's only one problem left: The DRAM ECC Error. According to the MBs Manual it's max. capable of 2400 MHz with Dual Rank modules... But I have read about several people with exactly the same board, cpu and memory that the run it at 2666 MHz...

    ECC just Doing it's thing or bad Memory?

    In case anyone else has these same issues in the future, the changes discussed above seems to have done the trick.

     

    My system has been running stable for a week now, no signs of any problems.

     

    To sum it up, what I did was follow the suggestions by the user Marshy in the thread linked above:

    - Set the RAM speed to 2666Mhz

    - Disable global c-states

    - Set Power Supply Idle Control to Typical

     

    I'm guessing the latter two didn't have anything to do with the ECC errors, but a lot of people seems to be reporting better system stability with those settings.

    Where did you set the ram speed to 2666 MHz? I can't find this option in the bios...

    Hey guys,

     

    i just wanted to boot my new unraid box, but there are a few problems with it.

     

    I use an ASRock Rack X470D4U with a Ryzen 7 2700 and two sticks of 16GB Kingston ECC RAM KSM26ED8/16ME.

     

    The first problem is that unraid doesn't get an IP from my router. It always displays the IP 169..... 

     

    Second problem is that I always get an DRAM ECC Error after a few minutes of running the system. I read some issues about it in other topics. I've already set the PSU Idle Control to 'Typical'. I can't set the RAM to 2600 MHz. It's only running on 2400 MHz instead.

     

    Please see my syslog.txt for more details. 

     

    Do you have any ideas how to solve my problems?

     

    Thank you very much for your help.

    Recommended CPU and MB for my new build

    Thanks for your replies. 
     

    Transcoding is not needed, because all clients will use direct playback. I chose the ASRock rack Mainboard, because I don’t want to buy a dedicated GPU. This MB has an onboard GPU.

     

    Do you think the noctua NH-D9A would fit while using all ram slots?

     

    I would like to passthrough an Intel pcie nic to a Win10 VM.

     

    I will now take a closer look to your suggestion with Intel Xeon.

     

    What do think how many cores I need in general for my demand?

    Hey guys,

     

    i'm going to setup up a new unraid server in the next weeks. Currently i'm wondering what CPU and MB i should choose.

     

    My favourite setup looks like

     

    • AMD Ryzen 5 2600
    • ASRock Rack X470D4U
    • 32 GB ECC-RAM Kingston

     

    It's quite affordable und has enough cores/threads.

     

    But I have read about several issues (e.g. the lack of official ECC support from AMD) with unraid and ryzen. Would you rather go for Intel or Ryzen in my use case?

     

    The unraid box has to the handle the following tasks:

     

    • Media Server (40 TB) for 1-5 clients
    • Dockers (Emby/jellyfin, UniFi, nextcloud, Bitwarden, deluge-vpn, letsencrypt, duckdns, syncthing, and maybe some more)
    • VMs (up to two Win10 VMs at the same time) (no gaming)
    • DVR for 2 cams with shinobi

     

    Would are your hardware recommendations for my needs?

     

    Thank you very much for your support!
