Kunterbunt

Hey, I'm running an UnRaid system since about half a year now with 2 GPUs and 2 running VMs for Gaming. The second VM runs totally fine for months now, however I have repeated trouble with the first one. This one has problems with its vDisk after a random amount of time, shortest was 3 days, longest probably a month. The issues presented also vary: Windows will only show repair / It will boot, but login is not possible due to corrupted User Profile / Login is possible, but programs will all present errors / Programs start but Something in AppData is wrong. So my analysis was that there is a corruption happening somewhere to the disk of the VM. I always have a backup of the day after I installed windows, with games already installed, so I could copy in the backup vDisk and averything was fine for some time again. Because it did not get better I figured to create a new VM with new vDisk, set everything up, backup and then used this VM instead, hoping there was just something wrong with the first VM. However, also with this new VM and vDisk, I still face the same problem. I am not sure what is causing this, considering that the second VM just runs fine. Here is a list of differences between the VMs: Because setting both VMs to autostart made one of them lock up, there is this simple script (in go) starting the problematic VM: #!/bin/bash sleep 60 virsh start Kunter The problematic VM has keyboard, mouse and a USB Soundcard attached on startup. Also a monitor is attached to the GPU, while the unproblematic one is accessed via SteamLink and thus does not have peripherials. The problematic VM uses the primary GPU, the other one the secondary. The machines have different CPU Cores assigned. I will attach the VMs definitions as well as the diagnostics, as the corruption could of course hint a physical disk problem. I am glad for ideas or experiences that could make the "3-in-1" journey a little smoother. Best, Kunterbunt Here is the xml of the problematic machine (Kunter): <?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?> <domain type='kvm'> <name>Kunter</name> <uuid>32c67302-8fa3-bc1a-cdaf-2ab17a079d93</uuid>
