[Pass-through 3 ports of a quad port nic?]

I use the webgui to edit it, and that garbage didn't show up in it.  I manually typed it instead of copying and pasting and that fixed it though.  Thanks!

 

I think I am just going to stick with passing through all 4 ports, so far I haven't had an issue with unraid itself using the realtek ethernet on the mobo, and i am want to go ahead and get pfsense going.

 

Thanks again!

[Pass-through 3 ports of a quad port nic?]

Sorry, I will try to be more clear.

 

I modified my syslinux config to use the xen-pciback.hide command.  When I rebooted my server, all the interfaces were showing up in unraid for the quad port nic in the networking settings of unraid.

 

I then removed the xen-pciback.hide command from the syslinux config and reinserted the vfio-pci.ids command and rebooted and the interfaces were still available for unraid to use.

 

I looked through my system log and could not see any error message related to the commands.  I am at work now, but can post the whole diagnostic zip when I get home if it helps.

 

I am really perplexed cause I was able to pass the entire card previously and now it won't. 

 

edit: I attached the diagnostics.

[Pass-through 3 ports of a quad port nic?]

I tried this method and it didn't passthrough, and now I can't passthrough the whole card using vfio-pci.ids.

 

I just saw this post: 

did a recent update break passthrough?

Thanks, I tried that and it didn't show in other devices, so I thought it didn't work.

 

I will add the xml manually.

[Pass-through 3 ports of a quad port nic?]

I got an i350 for my server and would like to pass-through 3 of the 4 ports, rather than all 4.

 

They are all seperated by IOMMU groups and I can easily pass the entire card with "vfio-pci.ids=8086:1521" in my syslinux config, but is there a way to take back one of the ports for unraid to use?

 

IOMMU group 8:	[8086:1521] 2e:00.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation I350 Gigabit Network Connection (rev 01)
IOMMU group 9:	[8086:1521] 2e:00.1 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation I350 Gigabit Network Connection (rev 01)
IOMMU group 10:	[8086:1521] 2e:00.2 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation I350 Gigabit Network Connection (rev 01)
IOMMU group 11:	[8086:1521] 2e:00.3 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation I350 Gigabit Network Connection (rev 01)

[Anybody planning a Ryzen build?]

I just built my Ryzen server yesterday.  It crashed sometime when I was unable to get to it.  I have been watching the log and its spitting out this error a lot:

 

Jul 17 08:39:17 FatTony kernel: pcieport 0000:00:01.2: AER: Corrected error received: id=0008
Jul 17 08:39:17 FatTony kernel: pcieport 0000:00:01.2: PCIe Bus Error: severity=Corrected, type=Data Link Layer, id=000a(Transmitter ID)
Jul 17 08:39:17 FatTony kernel: pcieport 0000:00:01.2: device [1022:15d3] error status/mask=00001000/00006000

Which correpsonds to this:

IOMMU group 1:

[1022:15d3] 00:01.2 PCI bridge: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD] Device 15d3

 

Anyone else had this problem?  On a B350 mobo.

 

Edit:  After some googling and trying various things, I added pcie_aspm=off to my syslinux.cfg and the errors are not getting thrown around anymore.  I will let it run and see if my system is stable now.

[A few questions before I order my hardware]

I am getting close to ordering my server parts and I have just a few questions I want to make sure of:

1) I am going to be using a Ryzen 5 2400G, which has an integrated Vega 11.  There Are there any issues with this processor in unraid at this point?

2) I have my drives I want to use for my pools locked in, but I also want to have a cache drive and a drive for a VM I am going to run.  Should that be 2 separate SSDs or should I just use 1 larger SSD?
