Correct way to use all available disk space for a VM
Hello, If i have an array of 4x8tb drives, what's the recommended way of benefiting from the whole 32tb space inside a vm? From what i understood reading the forums, creating a virtual disk of the VM with a size of 32tb won't be the right way to do it, as once that img reaches 8tb, it's game over as it can't be split among the other drives. Another way i read about in the forums is unassign the drives and pass them through to vm os and use a software raid inside the vm but that's kind of sketchy as i already have the array built in Unraid. And i would also like to continue being able to access the array as a network share. Thank you for any tips.

Two network connections, one for unraid, one for VM
Hello, I have 1 lan connection to my local network and 1 lan connection from my isp, which isn't routed so if i plug it in a network card, (based on mac), i get an external ip address on that network card. Is there a way to have unraid using just the local connection and a vm (ubuntu) using the isp lan connection? Thank you

[6.12.3] Hide WebUI on a public ip server
is there a way to achieve this? : only use eth0 for unraid os and inside a vm settings: only use eth1 for this vm this way, if i would set the local network to eth0, the webui would be accesibile only on lan. and inside the vm (for example an ubuntu install), i could set its network interface mac address to the one registered with my isp and i would get the external ip to the ubuntu vm. that would be awesome, is this possible?

[6.12.3] Hide WebUI on a public ip server
Hello everyone! I'm very new with Unraid, actually just installed for the first time. My (first :D) issue is that the way my ISP works, i only get a static external ip address based on my card's MAC address. Server is a dell r720 and i also have a lan cable from the server's second port to my home wifi router (some 4G weirdo). In this router i've set the server's second port MAC address to be assigned local ip 192.168.0.10. In Unraid i have eth0 with dhcp on auto and it got the external ip address. The eth1 with dhcp on got ip 192..10. By some miracle, running ping in terminal to yahoo and to my desktop's 192 ip, both work. Now, my first problem is that WebUI is accessible on both ips (external and 192..10), is there a way to prevent the ui being thrown out on the internet like that? Second issue is that i tried to create my first vm and apparently, it doesn't have internet access, guess my luck ended. The unraid eth0 connection is set to bonding no, enable bridging yes and members of br0 is just eth0. I don't want to use the 4G internet from eth1 so i didn't include it. So, if i want to share the internet from my eth0 external ip to a vm, what are my options here? Thank you!
