SimonF's post in VMs not auto-starting after upgrade from 6.12.6 to 6.12.8 was marked as the answerIf you are not using PCI passthru you can either leave blank or remove. Changes where made to stop autostart if vfio binding fails as could indicate PCI numbers have chaged due to hardware removal/additions etc. If the VM autostarts and now as the wrong device is allocated to the VM due to PCI number changes it could lookup or crash the host.
Before
07:00.0 VGA Card(Passthru to VM)
08:00.0 Disk Controller(Unraid)
After
07:00.0 DIsk Controller(Unraid)
If the VM autostarts the diskcontroller would be allocated to the VM and all the Unraid disks would not been seen on the host as a simple example.

SimonF's post in "Double Upgrade" with new upgrade method was marked as the answerYou need to be careful with this on 6.12 as overlay filesystems are in use which are still using the previous bz files.
Doing a 2nd update will cause an issue as it will delete the bz files in previous and move the current. Likely to get a system issue before reboot.

SimonF's post in operation failed: Multiple USB devices for 20bc:504d, use to specify one was marked as the answerYou need to use bus and device ID for same type. I have a plugin that will do that automatically for you based on the port it is connection or device+serial and map into the VM when it starts or is hot plugged. Also you need to set USB3 in the vm as USB2 will not have enough free USB ports.
look for USB Manager in CA. You will need to remove the mappings from the VM Template of the ones you want to map using my plugin.
