Just a stupid video i made of running unRAID on a macbook pro with usb flash drive as array. Then using its own OS X operating system passed through via its sdd as an unRAID vm!! OS X on unRAID running on a macbook pro!

I spoke to danioj earlier, unfortunately he's not well at the moment, so don't get upset if he doesn't reply for a while. Oh i am very sorry to hear that news and wish danioj a speedy recovery.

Hi Danioj I am loving your excellent script and have made a youtube video on it here http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=52784.0 I was thinking it would be really cool to add some pushbullet and pushover notifications after vms have been backed up with your script. maybe something like this #set whether to use push notication [0- none] [1-pushover] [2-pushbullet] pushnotifications="0" #pushover api (only fill in if set above to pushover above) apitoken="token=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" userkey="user=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" #pushbullet api (only fill in if set above to pushbullet above) API="xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" #set function "pushnotice" to push type if [[ "$pushnotifications" =~ ^(1|2)$ ]]; then if [ "$pushnotifications" -eq 1 ]; then function pushnotice { curl -s \ --form-string $apitoken \ --form-string $userkey \ --form-string "message=$1" \ https://api.pushover.net/1/messages.json } echo "set for pushover" elif [ "$pushnotifications" -eq 2 ]; then function pushnotice { curl -u $API: https://api.pushbullet.com/v2/pushes -d type=note -d title="unRAID status" -d body="$1" } echo "set for pushbullet" fi else function pushnotice { echo "$1" } fi Also would be great for ovmf machines to backup the ovmf nvram aswell. I am really liking the way this script is developing and thankyou for all the hard work you put in in making this.

I cant see anything wrong with your xml. But i see this line <kernel>/mnt/disk1/isos/Yosemite/bootr2839</kernel> From this i guess you are using Yosimite yes? I havent used yosimite myself (only el cap and sierra) so this possibly could be why? What you could try is to convert the vm to ovmf and cover and try with that.

I have used a few gpus in these configs. i have no built in gpu primary secondary hd 6450 750 ti r7 370 hd 6450 hd 6450 gtx950 hd 6450 gtx960 hd 6450 gtx970 latest config hd 6450 gtx1070

so are there any plans for arm emulation? Maybe if enough people want it.

No the defualt icons will be uneffected will just add more to them.

Do I need to do something with test so that it creates the nvram are somehow? Edit:1 OK, so I checked /etc/libvirt/qemu/nvram/ and indeed the nvram had not been created, so I created another test with no disk and this time started the vm. The nvram was created, so I am now pasting the new details into the elcap vm xml Edit:2 So the nvram gets deleted with the deletion of the test vm, so then the el cap vm cannot find it. Will copy a version before I delete the test vm template. Edit:3 Ok, so that worked and the vm is booting. Will try changing the resolution next. Thanks for the direction Cool glad you got it working I made a script that backs up the nvram and xml of all the vms, for use with squids user script plugin, that you may find useful in case one gets corrupted again http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=50416.msg505867#msg505867

wow thanks bonienl its great hearing positive feedback from the guy who made the unRAID Dynamix Gui It would be awesome to see one of my videos put as a sticky!

@gridrunner again useful information thanks & @peter_sm I;ve spent the best part of the day getting this to work and upgrading. I have used the Sierra EFI files and am running well, except I am again booting into the efi shell. I have to manually point the shell to the efi file to boot into clover each time, for some reason. It seem to occur when I change your default resolution from 800x600 to 1920x1080. I've setup the same resolution in the ovmf config too, so not sure why its not booting striaght. I have at least un upgraded El Cap to Sierra, thank you. I will listen to your clean install video to see if I have missed a step.... ok i maybe your ovmf nvram file is corrupt. try this. 1. make a new ovmf linux template virtual machine. 2. name it say "test template" 3. set primary disk location to none. 4. leave everything else as is, but uncheck start vm after creation. 5. click update what this will do is generate a new nvram file. so now goto the vm "test template" and look for the os tags like below <os> <type arch='x86_64' machine='pc-q35-2.5'>hvm</type> <loader readonly='yes' type='pflash'>/usr/share/qemu/ovmf-x64/OVMF_CODE-pure-efi.fd</loader> <nvram>/etc/libvirt/qemu/nvram/6d6dda8c-f323-ba22-8ed6-8fe56565dfd1_VARS-pure-efi.fd</nvram> <boot dev='hd'/> </os> copy that out of your test template then goto the osx vm template and replace the os tag code in that, with what you have just copied from the test template. now go back to your test template and find the line in uuid tags like this <uuid>6d6dda8c-f323-ba22-8ed6-8fe56565dfd1</uuid> then use that uuid in the test template copy it and then open osx template and replace the uuid line with that. after you have changed those 2 parts in the xml you can delete the "test template" vm You will have to change the resolution in the ovmf again as the new nvram file will be defualt. Please try that and report back here

Automatically download from repo and install custom VM icons to vm manager Here are a couple of scripts that work together. These will download custom vm icons and gui banners from a website repo (which has a collection of vm icons that users have submitted and can contribute to) to a choosen store folder on array. Then install them, from there, into the vm manager, by rsync to /usr/local/emhttp/plugins/dynamix.vm.manager/templates/images. Optional push notifications on new icon downloads built into script.

Now there's something I never would have thought of doing... Glad you got what you needed And without you I wouldn't find the domain.img! Though now I am going to read more about CA backups, how to use it and what's good to back up. Heres a script you can use with squids user script plugin that will backup all vm xml files and ovmf nvram files to a choosen dated folder. http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=50416.msg505867#msg505867

Backup vm xml files and ovmf nvram files. This script backs up vm xml files and ovmf nvram files to a folder of your choice. they are put into a dated folder. Just set the location in the script. #!/bin/bash #backs up #change the location below to your backup location backuplocation="/mnt/user/test/" # do not alter below this line datestamp="_"`date '+%d_%b_%Y'` dir="$backuplocation"/vmsettings/"$datestamp" # dont change anything below here if [ ! -d $dir ] ; then echo "making folder for todays date $datestamp" # make the directory as it doesnt exist mkdir -vp $dir else echo "As $dir exists continuing." fi echo "Saving vm xml files" rsync -a --no-o /etc/libvirt/qemu/*xml $dir/xml/ echo "Saving ovmf nvram" rsync -a --no-o /etc/libvirt/qemu/nvram/* $dir/nvram/ chmod -R 777 $dir sleep 5 exit vm_settings_backup.zip

Thanks for the idea. modified it to work with pushbullet and added a couple other notifications too. Love to know what extra functions did you put in your script? Good idea to do push bullet . So now i have edited the code in the script to give option of either.

Glad they were helpful If you are upgrading to sierra from elcap yes its possible . Check peter_sm post earlier in thread http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=51915.msg501680#msg501680 The reason you not booting the install/upgrader is probably this. Please check. <qemu:arg value='-cpu'/> <qemu:arg value='core2duo,vendor=GenuineIntel'/> </qemu:commandline> </domain> Your cpu is set for core2duo which is fine for el cap but not sierra. you will need to change it to this <qemu:arg value='-cpu'/> <qemu:arg value='Penryn,vendor=GenuineIntel'/> </qemu:commandline> </domain> Also when you have upgraded you will need to open the efi partition again then download the files description of the sierra video and use the efi folder in that instead as that contains a different patched clover for sierra. If you dont do this the machine will not run at full speed.

i tried sierra and el cap with 6.3 and both boot ok for me. But not tried passing through any gpu at the moment.

Hi Guys i have made this video below to show people who maybe new to unraid how to customize their server with the following plugins Community applications fix common problems unassigned devices system stats s3 sleep system temperature nerd pack system buttons Id like to say thanks to the guys who gave us these plugins that make our unRAID life better!!. Squid, dmacius72, dlandon and bergware. And as i cant make plugins i thought i would make a video instead! How to configure and install some essential plugins for unRAID

reserved..

Hi Guys. I have written a couple of scripts. These will download custom vm icons and gui banners from a website repo to a choosen folder on array. Then install them from there into the vm manager, by rsync to /usr/local/emhttp/plugins/dynamix.vm.manager/templates/images Before we used to add them to flash drive and copy with the go file as server started. Well now with Squids great user script plugin we can copy them after boot from the array. My plan is for us all to be able to create custom icons and share them through these scripts with other users. Please create any icons and upload them somewhere. Then post a link here in this thread and I will add them to the website repo. Hopefully us building a “community vm icons” If you would like to see what is there so far please goto Icons www.spaceinvader.one/unraidvmicons/ Banners www.spaceinvader.one/unraidbanners/ For example usage of an icon. I made this one (I know not great, but you get the idea!) Having the nvidea logo in the windows icon I know this vm is the one I have passed through my 1070, not the vnc one. There are 2 scripts that make this work. 1. Icon_banner downloader This script has 2 settings. First setting, to download all icons in category folders to a choosen location on the array. From here user copies the icons he or she likes to in that directory called store. From store script 2 syncs these icons with vm manager on array startup or manually Second setting, the script downloads all icons without category folders straight to the store folder and then rsyncs them vm manager with no user control (ie you cant pre select icons synced with this setting) This script also downloads custom banners to separate folder The script also has push notification for either pushover or pushbullet. So when new icons or banners are downloaded server will send a message telling you how many new ones have been downloaded. No message will be sent if nothing new downloaded. 2 Icon sysnc This script runs to rsync the downloaded icons which user has sorted into the store folder. This is done automatically on array start or manually. I have created a video showing how to setup and use below. I hope you guys like this idea.

yes have a look earlier in this thread http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=51915.msg501612#msg501612

looking at your xml in the atached text file there is no osk key. Did you delete that to make this post. It will not work without the apple osk key <qemu:commandline> <qemu:arg value='-device'/> <qemu:arg value='usb-kbd'/> <qemu:arg value='-device'/> <qemu:arg value='usb-mouse'/> <qemu:arg value='-device'/> <qemu:arg value='isa-applesmc,osk=apple osk key'/> <qemu:arg value='-smbios'/> <qemu:arg value='type=2'/> <qemu:arg value='-cpu'/> <qemu:arg value='Penryn,vendor=GenuineIntel'/> </qemu:commandline> </domain>

So you get to the clover boot screen. You see the Boot macOS Install option to start installing? Is your cpu type set for Penryn? Also are you on 6.2

Hi kuhnamatata i checked and downloaded okay for me. But as you had probs I have added another link to the video as well so 2 there now https://www.dropbox.com/s/tyakzgtn6h0hdd8/smc_read.zip?dl=0 By the way the osk key is just a phrase of words, seems almost a joke and you think "no it couldnt be that!" If anyone knows of a good free place for me to put files to link to for tutorials I would appreciate it. At moment i use mega and dropbox. mega is slow and dropbox has limitations on bandwidth i think.

vnc is so poor for the keyboard and mouse it wouldnt be usable. I passthough a gpu myself so have not tried editing remotely. But splashtop desktop ( http://www.splashtop.com/ ) is very good the graphics is much better and mouse control (and you get sound even without sound card passed through!). In fact i guess you could passthrough a keyboard and mouse and use splashtop/vnc for the screen maybe worth a try?

Try changing the smbios to the iMac14,1 or iMac14,2 definition. In your earlier post you say you are using hostdev to passthrough. You could try by qemu:arg value instead as peter_sm did. Check his code on here http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=51915.msg501064#msg501064 he is also using an nvidea card. I am not sure how to do either of these steps. This is my hostdev for my gpu, can you please tell me how the qemu command line should look in the xml and also how/where to change smbios? <address domain='0x0000' bus='0x04' slot='0x00' function='0x0'/> </source> <alias name='hostdev0'/> <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x04' function='0x0'/> </hostdev> <hostdev mode='subsystem' type='pci' managed='yes'> <driver name='vfio'/> <source> <address domain='0x0000' bus='0x04' slot='0x00' function='0x1'/> </source> <alias name='hostdev1'/> <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x05' function='0x0'/> </hostdev> looking quickly at this i think you should add <qemu:arg value='-device'/> <qemu:arg value='ioh3420,bus=pcie.0,addr=1c.0,multifunction=on,port=2,chassis=1,id=root.1'/> <qemu:arg value='-device'/> <qemu:arg value='vfio-pci,host=04:00.0,bus=pcie.0,multifunction=on,x-vga=on'/> <qemu:arg value='-device'/> <qemu:arg value='vfio-pci,host=04:00.1,bus=pcie.0'/> beneath the line <qemu:commandline> in your xml then delete the host dev part in the xml. Also if you have copied and pasted host dev from another vm remove the second translated address part (address type='pci' domain) and the vm manager will put that in for you when you click update. So like below try your host dev again like this. <hostdev mode='subsystem' type='pci' managed='yes' xvga='yes'> <driver name='vfio'/> <source> <address domain='0x0000' bus='0x04’ slot='0x00' function='0x0'/> </source> </hostdev> <hostdev mode='subsystem' type='pci' managed='yes'> <driver name='vfio'/> <source> <address domain='0x0000' bus='0x04’ slot='0x00' function='0x1'/> </source> </hostdev> note you didnt seem to have this part in your post <hostdev mode='subsystem' type='pci' managed='yes' xvga='yes'> <driver name='vfio'/> <source> (so just note when you past mine in, that bit isnt there.. Also if you delete the host dev to use other way delete that bit too. not just the part in your post.... does that make sense?) As for the changing of the smbios you do that once booted osx using the clover configurator, you must open the efi partition with the mount tool then get clover config to open the config.plist on the efi partition in the clover folder. From there you can change clover settings
