I hope that someone can help, I am trying to remove a SATA hard drive from my unraid environment to free up a SATA port for something else, so I have create a VM hard drive in Proxmox and pass this through to unraid. I have been able to preclear it with no issues, but for some reason I am no given the option to format it. I am on the latest version of preclear, but at the moment I am on version 6.11.1. any ideals ? I enclose a screen shot of my settings within proxmox and also a screen show from unraid.

ok, by the look of it, I have a lot of devices on IOMM port 11. I will see if I can spilt them up into there own groups and then retry

thanks for the information I am looking at something line Genuine LSI 6Gbps SAS HBA LSI 9211-8i (=9201-8i) P20 IT Mode ZFS FreeNAS unRAID to pass my HD's through but before I do. I would like to confirm that the following devices are not up to the job

thanks for the info

@binhex can you please inform me on where within the unraid docker it keeps all the TV show and for Radrr all the Film library information, as I would like to transfer my Sonarr and Radarr over to a different VM (within Proxmox) as I have been having a lot of trouble with my Unraid of late and I would like to keep my deluge, Radarr, and Sonarr going. I have looked around, but I can't see anything jumping out to me. and once I have have resolve my hardware / Unraird issue then I will move my Sonarr, and Radarr back over. I look forward to your reply

I have just moved my Unraid into Proxmox with little to no problems, but after the unraid finished rebuilding my Parity, I have discovered that I am not able to spin down my hard drivers within Unraid my current thinking - is that Unraid see them as Vm Hard disks and not a physical hard drive. all with default settings As may other people have done, I have pass through my Hard drivers as SCSI drivers, within proxmox Could my problem be that as I am passing through the Hard drives as SCSI's and not via a PCI controller that Unraid is not able to see the full hard drive details ? I did try and pass through a PCI controller but this just course unraid and proxmox to crash if I am wrong or you know how to fix this then please let me know, as I don't like having my disks spinning 24/7 when I don't need them to.

I hope that someone can help, I just loss all my dockers for deluge, Jacket, Radarr, Sonarr and many more, I through no problem I use the Add container command, but when I out the docker, I discovered that all my settings, and saved tv shows and films are gone. is there a way to restore them ?

I don't know if I am being dump here, but I have just gone to look at something within my plex server, and discovered that the option for the Nvidia Visible Devices is missing. I know I had set it up about 6 months ago, when I was having issues with my plex and transcoding, but now I can't find it. I have check that I still have the nvidia drivers plugin is still installed and working, and also the GPU status. can someone please help I have enclose a few pics of my installation

thanks, that is one more thing off my list to think about.

doing a bit more reading, and watching YouTube, and I see that they are using plopkexec. download plopkexec if I understand it, it that you create your unraid VM, and the PCI and USB devices, mount he plopkexec ISO then start VM, it will start plopkexec, and see the USB drive and unraid. my question is: if I have an unraid server already and all I am doing is moving it into VMware EXSI and my USB pen drive all ready have the Unraid config on it, then will it overright the information, with a new config ? or does plopkexec just act like a boot OS, and as I have pass through my USB drive then it will automatic see this and start my unraid server - as if it was still on a bare metal

@SimonF it looks to be OK, I haven't tested any of my devices at the moment, as I have few that are in some interesting places, but one I had removed that the <hostdev> code and added the Zigbee - it somehow found all my Zigbee devices and connected to them. I will test them once, I get home tonight

good morning. @SimonF is my XML for my VM

OK I have found the information - Thanks @SimonF but now here is the interesting bit. here is a screenshot of my information page. but when I go through the steps to set up my Zigbee Home Automation. it is failing, I will post my information and see if anyone can see my mistake and help me. here I am guesting results

have a think moment - how did you get that window.

I had to update from 6.9 to 6.11 and I loss my ConBee device, I followed the steps, but I am still no able to connected. the steps I follow was to modify my VM Config by adding the following code but when I when to find /config/hardware within HA HACS I was not able to find it. where is it locate.
