Hello, i want to setup (for testing) some McAfee products inside the unraid VM. This mlos linux should be based on CENTOS. https://blog.fpmurphy.com/2015/06/mcafee-linux-operating-system.html This TIE Server ist supported on so many platforms, but i get it not running on unraid. https://kc.mcafee.com/corporate/index?page=content&id=KB86324 My problem is that i can configure a VM to install the "virtual appliance", but after the next reboot the system can not access the HDD. I am not a expert at linux, but if i setup a centos direkt, it starts, and works fine. But that doesnt help me in that case because i need to use the provided iso image. I have try all Linux Templtes and tested virtiio and sata and scsi, and all does not work. Inside the Documentation from McAfee is a notice, that they support VirtoIO and the appliace checks the virtualisation technology. But at the point the system does not detect a virtualistaion technik in my unraid. The have this drivers included in the image VM VirtIO drivers/net/virtio_net.ko drivers/block/virtio_blk.ko drivers/char/virtio_console.ko drivers/char/hw_random/virtio-rng.ko drivers/scsi/virtio_scsi.ko drivers/virtio/virtio_ring.ko drivers/virtio/virtio_mmio.ko drivers/virtio/virtio_pci.ko drivers/virtio/virtio.ko drivers/virtio/virtio_balloon.ko kernel/arch/x86/kvm/kvm-intel.ko kernel/arch/x86/kvm/kvm.ko Can someone help Thanks

Hi, i have found why i was asking about the Serial Number, but if i read it again and completly, i think it was a misinterpretation from my side. I have read this. "There are a number of USB Flash devices that do not have a valid serial number and can not be registered:" It is posted here https://lime-technology.com/hardware-recommendations/ But above this you are pointing out ....your flash device must contain a unique GUID (Globally Unique Identifier) ..... I was my fault, i only remember the Phrase with the Serial number in my mind. Thanks again, Olaf

Hello, i have one question regarding the USB Stick discussion for unraid Software. USB Sticks a normal very cheap and that is why they are also the most of the time produced with cheap commoditys. Sometimes that results in a early fault. And for my NAS starting device i want to use the best USB Stick i can find. In my research i find out, the USB Sticks with SLC memory technology are much more safty than the normal one with a MLC technology. I have found a company that build USB Sticks with that SLC Technology. http://www.winkom.eu/ (I hope it is allowed to write a URL inside a post). I have asked them the question regarding a serial number inside their USB Sticks, and up now they do not do it, but they told me that they have think about it in the past and it is possible, if they see a use case. The use case could be unraid and they told me that it could be interessting for them. They have asked me if unraid only needs a serial number or also a GUID (Global Unique Identifyer). I am not sure in that questions. Up to now i have only read the unraid needs a individual serial number, that is something they can produce but a GUID is not so easy. But i have also find some informations that some vendors are on a black list, is this because the GUI? Can you help me with this question? Maybe it is also interesting for some of you. Thanks Olaf

Thanks for the quick answer. Than everythink is fine. If it is working in the next days the way it has worked up to now, i do buy my first unraid licence next week. Thanks Olaf

Hi, doday i have seen the following Situation on my unraid NAS, and i need a confirmation about this. At first i am in the testing Periode, i have not bought the key, maybe this could the cause. But i have 16 days remaining. I run it on a Shuttle XC60J Case with 8GB RAM, one m.2 and one 12 TB WD Gold. I know i have no security (parity) with that configuration, but for this data that is OK for me. Today i changed the m.2 that was used for Cash Device from Samsung 960 EVO (PCI) to WD green (SATA). After the next start i dont plug in the Ethernet Cable (i have forgotten it), so plug it in later and directly go to the wegbui from my unraid. I have seen a message that Volumes where not online, because of the not reachable Licence Server? Is that realy the case, that every System Needs to check your licence Server before Startup? Or is this only a Limitation from the Test Environment? Thanks for your answer Olaf
