Global C-State control was set to auto in the bios. Changed the option to disabled. Thanks for the link and quick response. I still wonder how the server ran fine for a month before locking up the first time and another month or so before todays event?

My Unraid server froze/crashed about a month ago and once I performed a hard reset it was back up and running until this morning. Was unable to access the server through ssh, webgui, and directly connecting monitor and keyboard. Uploading logs and maybe someone can spot the cause. Thank you. cerberus-diagnostics-20220509-1032.zip

Thanks for the info @JorgeB Pulled the 12 disks from the array and started the format process on the 1st disk. This is going to take some time to go through 12 of them but I at least have my existing array back up and running.

I've had a Unraid server running smooth on a DL380P Gen8 for two years. Decided to retire the server and build a 24 bay Threadripper server. Transplanted the HBA (HP H220 IT-Mode), cache disks and array to a SuperMicro 846 24 bay chassis with BPN-SAS2-846EL1 backplane. Ran that for a couple weeks with no issues. Recently purchased a dozen 4TB disks cheap with mixed but mostly low hrs. (All pass smart test) Running into a lot of read errors on the bottom 12 bays. Troubleshooting Steps to date: - Swapped out H220 for a LSI 9207-8i - P20.00.07.00-IT. - Swapped out the backplane. - Tried 3 different SFF8087 cables. I've ran out of ideas. Thanks. cerberus-diagnostics-20211223-2332.zip

I've got 2 of the HP branded Fusion-IO Drive2 1.2TB that I would love to install as cache disks as well. Gonna stick around and see if there is anything I can do to help.

Odd. I guess it would cause issues if they happened to share the same cpu cores or the ram was over provisioned. I have 3 vms on my machine and shut down one to boot up macosx because they share the same cpu cores.

In regards usb passthrough, I have usb controller passthrough working with my windows vms just fine. When i added one of the controllers to the gui template for macinabox vm + edit the xml side and fire up the vm I get a black screen. GPU passthrough, cpu count, and ram are ok. Any special settings you had to do for usb controller passthrough to work with the mac os vm @SpaceInvaderOne. I followed your video on usb passthrough for my windows vms and it works slick. I was able to passthrough 2 usb controllers from the motherboard to 2 windows vms. One is 4 ports USB3.0 and the other is 2 ports USB3.1. I just connected a 4 port hub to each.

USB Passthrough was a failure. Anyone know how to get that to work? I am able to assign a usb keyboard in the template and using it just fine. My goal is to pass through the entire controller I use when I fire up one of my windows virtual machines. Uploaded the template for the windows bare metal vm I will alternate hardware with. +++ OSK REMOVED +++ Catalina GPU+RAM+CPUCatalina G+M+C+USBwindows vm.rtf

Ok. Ryzen 7 2700x 8 cpu cores pass-though works. I had issues before and don't know why for sure. Instead of selecting cores in the template and adding the custom xml back to the config, I copied the core xml lines from a windows vm that uses the same cores over the the Catalina xml and I am typing this inside a 8 core 16gb ram rx580 vm of Catalina. Next task is usb passthrough. be back soon.

I can report I now have it working fine and it was actually super easy removing the original install of Mojave and starting fresh with Catalina. I have gpu passthrough with my RX 580 and 16gb ram. My next step is to see if I can get a usb controller with mouse and keyboard to pass-though and increase my core count. When I increase my core count with a 2700x to 8,6,4 cores, I get nothing on screen. Going to attempt this shortly and see if I can get it sorted out.

Change disk type to raw in the template.

Configured the XML for gpu pass-through with RX 580 and I get a blank screen. GPU pass-through working with Windows vms just fine after a custom kernel by @Leoyzen I have tried with and without V bios also. Macos boots just file and works great with VNC set as display.

SUCCESS!!!! Changing the disk type to RAW in the template fixed my issue. Now what? Can I change the number of cpu cores / ram without causing issues? Willing to try gpu and usb passthrough also.

I have a 500Mbps down connection and solid gigabit thoughout the house. Heck. It could be my ISP acting up. So many variables.

@SpaceInvaderOne I can so far report the download of mojave is much faster this morning. Not sure if its the servers or switching to raw. 20 minutes compared to 1h 20m. Also farther than I was with the last three install attempts. Past the first reboot now.
