SimonF's post in Connecting UNRAID VM serial ports to 2 VMs on the same UNRAID server was marked as the answer
I have been able to get this to work.
To get socat for 6.12 do, if extra does not exist mkdir /boot/extra
cd /boot/extra wget https://slackware.uk/slackware/slackware64-15.0/slackware64/n/socat-1.7.4.3-x86_64-1.txz installpkg socat-1.7.4.3-x86_64-1.txz
For next release will need to be 1.8 this version is not compatible with 6.12.
wget https://mirrors.slackware.com/slackware/slackware64-current/slackware64/n/socat-1.8.0.0-x86_64-1.txz
You only need to install once downloaded. Packages in extra get loaded at boot.
This is the XML added to each VM.
Debian
<serial type='unix'>
<source mode='bind' path='/tmp/foo'/>
<target type='isa-serial' port='1'>
<model name='isa-serial'/>
</target>
<alias name='serial1'/>
</serial>
Unraid-VM
<serial type='unix'>
<source mode='bind' path='/tmp/foo2'/>
<target type='isa-serial' port='1'>
<model name='isa-serial'/>
</target>
<alias name='serial1'/>
</serial>
Then run -dd is only to give debug data.
root@computenode:/usr# socat -dd UNIX-CLIENT:/tmp/foo UNIX-CLIENT:/tmp/foo2

SimonF's post in Enabling VM Service causing USB Flash Drive to go offline was marked as the answer
Is this your flash drive?
Bus 001 Device 005: ID 0951:1666 Kingston Technology DataTraveler 100 G3/G4/SE9 G2/50
You have it defined in the JasonVM.
mv /usr/local/sbin/qemu /usr/local/sbin/qemu.old
This will allow you VM manager and the VMs will not autostart.
edit the VM to remove this section.
<hostdev mode="subsystem" type="usb" managed="no">
<source startupPolicy="optional">
<vendor id="0x0951"/>
<product id="0x1666"/>
</source>
<address type="usb" bus="0" port="1"/>
</hostdev>
mv /usr/local/sbin/qemu.old /usr/local/sbin/qemu
Now you should be able to start your VMs.

SimonF's post in VMs not auto-starting after upgrade from 6.12.6 to 6.12.8 was marked as the answer
If 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.

1024Gb is 1Tb? But it will start as a sparse file so the vdisk on the physical disk will be smaller until data is put into it.

SimonF's post in [SOLVED] Unable to start VM after stopping it - missing svm was marked as the answer
Any reason why you are not using host passthru for the CPU? First one is missing the feature lines below are the ones you have on the 2nd working one.
<cpu mode='custom' match='exact' check='full'> <model fallback='forbid'>qemu64</model> <topology sockets='1' dies='1' cores='1' threads='1'/> <feature policy='require' name='x2apic'/> <feature policy='require' name='hypervisor'/> <feature policy='require' name='lahf_lm'/> <feature policy='disable' name='svm'/> </cpu>

SimonF's post in "Double Upgrade" with new upgrade method was marked as the answer
You 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.
