Hi Is it possible for the display connected to Unraid to sleep? When my VM display goes to sleelp, my monitor switches to the Unraid input display and I dont want this to happen.

Hello Apologies if this has been answered already. Is it possible to prevent the UNRAID GUI from wakening a HDD from sleep when assigned using 'unassigned devices' plugin? I have 2 4TB HDDs (sde and sdf) that I set to sleep after 2 minutes of no activity using hdparm -S $device However, after they sleep and I refresh the UNRAID main page that shows the disks, both drives spin up. Is this normal? Is there anything I can do to stop this from happening? I tested this using hdparm -Y /dev/sde forcing the drive to sleep and then refreshing the UNRAID gui. This wakes up the drive also. Anyone using a script to put their drives to sleep and works OK, please share it so I can see the script config. Thank you.

how do you get/set the pre-configured 14.2 smbios?

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>

Just tried my nvidia 750 that worked with el capitan and unfortunately Sierra is not liking it in passthrough. This is in OVMF, not sure about SEABIOS as I haven't been able to get Sierra installed with that.

Stumbled across an issue here... I converted my seabios to ovmf as per the video, my osx boots fine so no issues there... Odd thing is, the Ethernet shows as disconnected in OSX. I checked my xml and e1000-82545em is present and configured correctly. Went back to my seabios install and there is no issue with the network, so something has not converted correctly or ovmf is causing issues with the network driver/extension. Any ideas? Also, can Sierra be installed on SEABIOS? I tried it earlier, changed cpu type to Penryn but cannot boot.

OK, I have to use nvda_drv=1 in the clover boot options to get my GT730 to work.

Did you have to do anything special in your xml? All I did was copy/paste my hostdev section for the gpu and gpu audio from seabios xml in to the ovmf xml. When I start the VM i get a black screen. Do you need to inject or modify the clover boot parameters?

Nvidia passthrough is broken though. Was working with SEABIOS.

I followed the video exactly and the same has happened to me. I start the new OVMF VM and i get the same error message ("Guest has not initialized the display yet"). I'm running 6.2 stable. EDIT: Changed the VNC to Cirrus and now get the clover boot menu. However, the VM reboots (repeatedly) as soon as the Apple logo is displayed. This can happen when the cpu is not set to core2duo in xml. can you post your xml file here please (just remove the osk key from it though) All fixed, i was missing the core2duo in xml. thanks!

Hi Can someone tell me where the XML files for the VMs are stored on the flash drive? I need to recover a VM XML from a previous backup but unable to find it. Thank you.

Apologies if this has been asked before. I use unassigned devices plugin and dont have any drives in the unraid array or cache. Is it possible for the 'system statistic' plugin to view the storage usage/performance for the drives managed by the unassigned devices plugin? At present the plugin shows that I have 6 drives but displays 0B/s for all of them.

SSDs SDB SDD SDE SDF All 4 were showing grey icon and asterix for temp.

Nope, there is an asterix where the temp usually is. Is there a way to disable standby or increase from 15mins to something like 180mins?

Nope, there is an asterix where the temp usually is. Is there a way to disable standby or increase from 15mins to something like 180mins?

Grey means spun down or on standby and temperatures are unavailable in that state. Since they are SSDs, can I prevent them from spinning down or going to standby? Do you have a script defined? If you create a script file, the drive will be monitored for spin down status and temperature. Read the second post about best practices. No, I do not have a script defined. What would a script look like that allows me to monitor the SMART/Temp even if the SSD is unmounted or in standby? I really do appreciate your guidance with this. thank you. The check is for the existence of a script file. It can be empty or use the default script that really does nothing. Just click on the edit script icon, select the default script, and then save it. This was done because some users want a "hot standby" disk and don't want it checked for spin up status and temperature. The existence of a script file implies that you are going to use the device and want it monitored. A lot of the support questions coming up here can be easily resolved by reading my second post about "best practices" and looking at the UD log file. I realize everyone is in a hurry these days and wants a quick answer, but the first two posts are an easy read and will answer a lot of your questions. If I have not been clear enough, let me know and I will elaborate as needed. I finally got around to trying this again since having many other issues with my UNRAID system. The fact is, my SSDs still show a grey status icon even though I select the default script and save it. The SSDs are mounted and have VM images on them although the VM is powered off. I thought the default script kept the drive alive (hot) ?

Hi I use this plugin for mounting 4 x SSDs and it works very well. However, I noticed a strange issue, maybe bug? On the main UNRAID tab under Unassigned Devices, the SMART status of each drive changes from green to grey and the Temperature disappears. I need to click the drive and poll SMART for it to turn green again and display the temp. Not sure why this is, can it be fixed? thank you!

Hi I have the latest gigabyte x99 board (x99p-sli) so far so good with unraid. However, the sensors-detect only finds coretemp so i can only see cpu temperatures. How do i get it to detect fan speeds, motherboard temp etc? There was one 'unknown' chip in the sensors-detect output but Im not sure what that was for.

Hi How did you get to boot from the LSI controller? I added my NVME controller like so... <hostdev mode='subsystem' type='pci' managed='yes'> <driver name='vfio'/> <source> <address domain='0x0000' bus='0x01' slot='0x00' function='0x0'/> </source> <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x05' function='0x0'/> </hostdev> But it tries to boot from the CDROM not the PCI device I just added. Any ideas?
