    Ok, if you'd like to be a guinea pig, here's another method for passing through a block device that does not utilize the virtio-scsi controller.  Changing your existing VM to this may possibly not work (you may have to reinstall windows or try a few things to get it to boot again).

     

    1 - Remove all the custom xml stuff I had you add originally.

    2 - Add a new <disk> section that looks like this:

     

     

     

    To find what to put in the highlighted portion, you will need to login to your server from command line.  Then type the following command:

     

     

    ls /dev/disk/by-id
     

     

     

    Find the one that represents your storage device (but without the -part1 at the end) and paste that in the section above that says YOUR DISK ID HERE.  This should work regardless of what SCSI IDs change to after reboots.

     

    This is the best and simplest way to do it.
    I was running arround in multiple treads until I found this. Thx mate.

     

    On an end note: I'm not using this particular drive to boot my OS from, it's a secondary drive for an already existing VM. So I can't say if it's bootable or not, but it is usable inside the VM at least.

  2. Basically what's in the title.

     

    I want to know the procedure to take a SSD out of the cache pool without loosing any data... I have 2 disks in that pool, a sata ssd and a nvme m2 ssd. I'm not planning on replacing it or something, just want to take ou the SATA one.

     

    Is there a way to do this or am I going to lose my data? In there I have the "domains" share with all the VMs and apparently the appdata with the docker container configurations, as far as i can tell, but the occupied space in there fits the space on the one that's left.

     

    Thx in advance

    Also, edits like you want to do won't survive updates.

     

    I figured as much... but i can easily not update it, or smash the files again after each update.

    I want to "play" with the webgui of an application, specifically changing the favicon and name that appears on the webpage tab and since the files aren't in appdata I'm figuring the only way to change this would be to edit the files inside the image itself.

  4. Hi guys. I've been experimenting with unraid for a few days now and I'm loving the system, the simplicity of it and the fact it just works. Although I have a IT background, I've mostly been around windows and azure administration, so I wasn't expecting for it to be this intuitive, so credit to the creators of the system and the webgui itself.

    Having said this, I'm having a difficulty, not with unraid itself, but with docker, but since it's on unraid i decided to reach for help here.

    Now, bare in mind this might be an incredible noobish question, so sorry in advance.

     

    How do I directly access docker.img? Not the file itself, but the files inside of it.

     

    I've tried creating a Linux vm and mounting it as a secondary hdd, but it fails every time. What I'm trying to do is directly edit the files of a docker container and replace some of them.

     

    Thx in advance
