    Switch to advanced view and add it in the extra parameters field. 

    Curious which extra argument you need? 

    I have to add 

    TVH_ARGS="--satip_xml http://your.box.ip.address:49000/satipdesc.xml"

    So i can get my AVM DVB-C SATIP tuner to work.

     

    Guide i use:

    https://tvheadend.org/boards/4/topics/18013?r=18030#message-18030

     

    The advanced view is only for container arguments right? I think i need to add an application argument.

    Hyper-V inside a Server 2016 VM

    in VM Engine (KVM)

    Posted

    I think I solved it, with an additional note.

    I don't know if Buggy's post made a difference, but I'm guessing it did.

    However: I still couldn't install hyper-v through programs and features. Same message and greyed out as screenshot above.

     

    After a bit of googling and mumbling, I randomly stumbled on a microsoft link: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/virtualization/hyper-v-on-windows/quick-start/enable-hyper-v

    By random chance I just attempted the powershell command written there: Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName Microsoft-Hyper-V -All

    And success, it installed hyper, rebooted twice and I now have Hyper-V Manager and everything installed.

     

    NB:

    I have not yet tried booting anything through it, so whether it works or just installed I can't say yet. I'm keeping my hopes high, will try during the weekend. I'll update this thread/post if I have success.

     

    99% sure it won't work, it is installed but the hypervisor itself is not completely started. For some reason Microsoft really doesn't want people nesting Hyper-V even through it theoretically works perfectly (VMware has an option to bypass this "protection").

    Virtualize a Rasberry Pi?

    in VM Engine (KVM)

    How would that work with GPUs?

     

    Passthrough: Very unlikely.

     

    Virtual GPU (CPU/VNC): Should be possible.

     

    The GPU passthrough support is only a problem because almost no PCI-E GPU supports ARM, passing through other devices (something like a GPIO board) could work.

    Anybody gotten Xpenology to run on a VM on UNRAID 6 ??? PLEASE HELP

    in VM Engine (KVM)

    my reason to use it is for their CCTV system which runs reasonable well for my requirements.

     

    Xpenology is unsupported and you should always expect an error to corrupt data on the harddrive.

     

    The only other alternative being an app named BlueIris which runs under windows, however that requires a $50 license fee.

     

    Please use that alternative, you can use it in a virtual machine if you want but please don't use Xpenology for a CCTV system.

     

    I have attempted to get Xpenology to boot using the new DSM6 image created last month, however when it boots its states it cannot find any hard drive in the system.

     

    I don't know if DSM6 works under unRAID/KVM but you probably have the virtual harddisk set to VirtIO, which doesn't doesn't work in Xpenology. Change the virtual harddisk controller type to SATA and don't forget to set the virtual ethernet adapter to e1000.

     

     

    Sorry for posting this again but i added the warning for using Xpenology for a CCTV system.

    Known working GPUs for Passthrough?

    in VM Engine (KVM)

    I guess it is just a job of googling whether or not your card is MSI capable?

    Its almost impossible to find information online if a card is MSI capable, there is a guide on how to find out if your card its MSI capable in the unraid wiki.

     

    GTX 960 4GB

     

    And I learned from another topic on this forum that the NVidia "code 43" errors only apply when freshly installing the drivers with HyperV and other such features visible. It's perfectly safe to turn those back on after rebooting the machine post-install. Gotta be careful of automatic driver updates, though.

    I never got an error 43 on my Card (Asus 980ti Strix OC, Hyper-V enabled) i actually recently uninstalled my GPU driver using DDU and everything still worked perfectly, just at 800x600 until i installed the driver again.

    Avast Issue (Pirates against Unraid or Vice Versa)

    in VM Engine (KVM)

    Posted

    I've always had issues with avast and in rc2 now have issues where installing Aug will cause Explorer in Windows 10 to start to stutter and actually had a vm I couldnt shut down

     

    I'm doing windows defender and malware bytes. I then run a hitman Pro scan every so often as well and run PIA vpn which now has a built in anti malware (apparently)

     

    The Private Internet Access VPN app does not have an integrated anti-malware scanner, it only blocks known malware and ad domains (and maybe IPs as as well, not sure). You still need an antivirus like malwarebytes (which i use) to detect and remove ad- and malware since a lot of malware comes from websites which are not on the list.

     

    Avast not working in VMs:

    I dont have avast but glasswire (a firewall app) breaks the virtual ethernet after rebooting the VM, the DNS resolution is so slow that most programs that need an internet connection are impossible to use. Because i used the steam version i had to remove the virtual ethernet adapter (since the DNS resolution is only really slow and still theoretically works steam cant be started in offline mode with the virtual ethernet adapter connected), start steam in offline mode and then uninstall Glasswire.

    ***GUIDE*** Passthrough Entire PCI USB Controller

    in VMs

    Posted

    WARNING: DO NOT DO THIS UNLESS YOU ARE 100% SURE THAT THE UNRAID USB IS NOT ON THIS CONTROLLER! IF YOU DO THIS WITH THE CONTROLLER THAT UNRAID IS USING YOUR PC/SERVER WILL NOT BOOT!

     

    If one or more (four on my server) usb ports dont work after passing through a usb controller you have to do this:

     

    Step 1. Go to tools -> system devices and look for the usb controller

    Step 2. Copy the number that looks like this

    Step 3. Go back to "Main" and click on "Flash"

    Step 4. Add this to your syslinux config 

    pci-stub.ids=8086:8d31

    (replace "8086:8d31" with the number from Step 2.)

    Step 5. Save the Syslinux config FsnMASm.png, shutdown all vms, stop the array and shutdown your pc/server

     

    Step 6. After the pc/server is turned off turn off the Power Supply or unplug the power cord and wait ~5-10 Seconds.

    Step 7. Start the PC/Server

    Try this config:

     

        <disk type='file' device='cdrom'>

          <driver name='qemu' type='raw'/>

          <source file='/mnt/user/isos/XPEnoboot_DS3615xs_5.2-5644.5.iso'/>

          <backingStore/>

          <target dev='hda' bus='sata'/>

          <readonly/>

          <boot order='1'/>

          <alias name='sata0-0-0'/>

          <address type='drive' controller='0' bus='0' target='0' unit='0'/>

        </disk>

        <disk type='file' device='disk'>

          <driver name='qemu' type='raw' cache='writeback'/>

          <source file='/mnt/user/DSM/DSM/vdisk1.img'/>

    Thats probably why you cant change the bus type in the gui (My Version: cBpnGE4.png)

     

    Im not 100% sure if this works but try changing the harddrive config to:

     

          <disk type='file' device='disk'>

          <driver name='qemu' type='raw' cache='writeback'/>

          <source file='/mnt/user/DSM/DSM/vdisk1.img'/>

          <backingStore/>

          <target dev='hdc' bus='sata'/>

          <boot order='2'/>

          <alias name='sata0-0-2'/>

          <address type='drive' controller='0' bus='0' target='0' unit='2'/>
