  1. Thanks a lot for all this info that helped me make the hibernation work on my VM (Zorin OS). The only different thing I had to do is to resize the swapfile (default was 2GiB) based on the instructions in the provided link : sudo swapoff /swapfile sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/swapfile bs=$(cat /proc/meminfo | awk '/MemTotal/ {print $2}') count=1024 conv=notrunc sudo mkswap /swapfile sudo swapon /swapfile And install package uswsusp in order to have swap-offset available. After that it works well now, with a strange behavior on my login screen that is in like 800x600 resolution, but after it is ok ^^ Thanks again
  2. Hope I can help. I have a GPU (Nvidia 970) passthrough, that I have put on both VM (one Windows 10, and one Zorin OS, based on Ubuntu). The have globally the same conf, except the Windows is on his own SSD. For the Linux to properly hibernate I had to follow an other topic and tweak around : But I do not have the <pm>...</pm> lines on my config in order to hibernate the Windows. I remember that it is not activate by default either within the OS : https://www.ubackup.com/windows-11/hibernate-mode-windows-11.html After that the qemu agent is able to shutdown the VM to disk properly, and I can do a normal virsh start to start the VM.
  3. Great thread that helped me exactly for what I was looking for ! Just a reply to let people know that the proposed solution still works well. Personnaly, I just updated the virsh shutdown "$vm1" with virsh dompmsuspend "$vm2" --target disk in order to use hibernation and find my work where I left it. Works well for Windows, but not for Linux distrib, as I found out it is not enable by default nowadays (the install does not even provide a swap partition when using default settings oO). Anyway that's an issue for an other day
  4. Hello, I am currently testing Unraid with a trial licence, and finally successfully use GPU passthrough. My motherboard, if it is any help, is an ASUS Sabertooth 990FX R2.0. From my research, I believe that one of the important part is the southbridge the motherboard is using. In my case it is SB950. Good luck !
