They have been pass through! So off to figure out how to add them in to the OS so that it can see them. Do you have any starting points for me? Thank you! Doug

Hello, I have been using unRaid for the past year half. Its been the best thing ever! THANK YOU LIME Technology and others! So I am needing some help now. I know that this has been hashed bashed and trashed over a bit. I have done all my searching. I have tried a number of different findings and still no luck with this. Here is my current setup System Information Model: Custom M/B: Supermicro - X10SL7-F CPU: Intel® Xeon® CPU E3-1241 v3 @ 3.50GHz HVM: Enabled IOMMU: Enabled Cache: 256 kB, 1024 kB, 8192 kB Memory: 32 GB (max. installable capacity 32 GB) Network: eth0: 1000 Mb/s, full duplex, mtu 1500 eth1: not connected Kernel: Linux 4.9.10-unRAID x86_64 OpenSSL: 1.0.2k Uptime: PCI Devices and IOMMU Groups IOMMU group 11 [8086:1533] 05:00.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation I210 Gigabit Network Connection (rev 03) IOMMU group 12 [8086:1533] 06:00.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation I210 Gigabit Network Connection (rev 03) IOMMU group 13 [8086:1521] 07:00.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation I350 Gigabit Network Connection IOMMU group 14 [8086:1521] 07:00.1 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation I350 Gigabit Network Connection IOMMU group 15 [8086:1521] 07:00.2 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation I350 Gigabit Network Connection IOMMU group 16 [8086:1521] 07:00.3 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation I350 Gigabit Network Connection Here is what I am trying to accomplish: I want to pass-through the last two individual ports of my Intel I350-T4 NIC to one of my VM that is running Debian. So that would be [8086:1521] 07:00.2 and [8086:1521] 07:00.3 that I want to use on that Quad port NIC. BUT from my reading and self education on this, I cannot pick out these ports separately and leave the others for unRaid. And that is fine as I would like to use the other two for two other VMs. So I would need to stub the whole card so that unRaid doesn't see it and want to use it. Here is what I have done so far: I have added this to the syslinux.cfg: append pci-stub.ids=8086:1521 initrd=/bzroot I have even tried append vfio-pci.ids=8086:1521 initrd=/bzroot I personally do not know what the difference is. But they both seem to do the same thing and allowing the WHOLE NIC card to be stubbed from the unRaid server. After a reboot of the unRaid server. I see that this is successful in this part of the steps. Now onto the addition of the two ports that I want a Debian VM to use. Here is what I can see and then what two ports I have selected. And here is the XML for this VM image PBX xml.txt Here is the most important part of the whole thing. <hostdev mode='subsystem' type='pci' managed='yes'> <driver name='vfio'/> <source> <address domain='0x0000' bus='0x07' slot='0x00' function='0x2'/> </source> <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x02' slot='0x04' function='0x0'/> </hostdev> <hostdev mode='subsystem' type='pci' managed='yes'> <driver name='vfio'/> <source> <address domain='0x0000' bus='0x07' slot='0x00' function='0x3'/> </source> <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x02' slot='0x05' function='0x0'/> </hostdev> All of this should be right from all the research that I have done. But the VM does not see the two cards. Here are all the Hidden different posts that I have found outside of the sticky main posts on this subject. These sure did help me get to this point! and I want to acknowledge the person behind each one and say Thank you! I feel that there are more posts that I have read on this subject. Its not that hard! but its not wanting to work. What am I missing? Why will this not work? Thank you Doug
