  1. Anyone knows why the VM doesn't start back after backup? v0.2.3 - 2021/03/11 So, the backup runs as planned, finishes but the VM does not start again - I have to do it manually. At first it wasn't working for couple of days then it started working by its own (the VM started after backup) then I had to backup another VM so I just selected that one, finished the backup then reverted backing up only this one - after that it stopped starting after backup. Any ideas? Here are the configurations:
  2. Hey, thanks for the info. I have a different kind of problem. I am able to see the Xbox One Wifi Adapter device in Windows, but unable to sync it with the actual Xbox Controller inside VM Windows. Did you have that kind of an issue? The adapter and controller work fine on any other non VM computer. So, once you got the Windows to show the actual Wifi adapter, you were able to connect the controller to it without any issues? Any ideas? Thanks
  3. Hello and thanks to everyone who tried to help with an ACTUAL SUGGESTION. Mainly to "Energen" with his: It really was an USB issue, we repaired the device and plugged it back, rebooted and it worked, we are now in the process of transferring the configuration to another USB device that they will purchase a licence for as promised and hopefully - everything will work out fine for everyone. To others who were more concerned that the client was using unlicenced software and that we should walk away from the job. We are an IT SUPPORT company, not an IT WALK AWAY company. If we have a client that asks for help, we do our best to HELP and straighten things up - and advocate for the "good guys" in the process. For another client we managed to negotiate licencing a dozen computers with fake Autocad licences and went through hell and back to keep both sides happy in the process. For everyone else who were more concerned about the licence issue and actually took time to write a help-less reply, figure this: the modified version is OUT THERE, obviously, and people are using it. Eventually they might run in to the same problem as this client has - once you go with that version of the software there is no way from inside the system (if it's a PRO licence) to change the key, unregister it or something else and they are stuck with it - HINT, HINT, WINK, WINK developers!. In my opinion, everyone who tried to help and gave a conctructive suggestion in this post did more for developers in the end than others who were more concerned about well being of our company and that of Unraid team. There is a lesson for everyone here I guess. Cheers!
  4. We knew this would be a fun topic. I guess the main question here would be: Which files are necessary in order to keep the config but not related to anything regarding the UNRAID version it was on? If we just copy the config folder (from a PRO version) to a new licenced USB (a BASIC version) and try to boot up, would that work? Also, there is a great possibility that it is a bad USB indeed, we just don't know that unless we make a reboot of the system, the main issue is that we aren't even sure if the USB is bad or it's not showing the FLASH contents as the GUI is messed up so much. If it's a bad USB then the plan is to get the config out from the backup they had made and hope nothing hardware wise hasn't changed in the meantime. Cheers!
  5. Hello everyone, we have a small IT support company and one of our clients had a "modified" unlicenced version of the unraid software on their server that has gone bonkers (they've tried updating this cracked UNRAID 6.6.6. PRO that was on and it fell apart afterwards). What happened: 1. they've installed the cracked version 6.6.6. pro and set up the whole system on it 2. then someone (very smart) tried to update it - they had a backup done before as after the update the system did not boot 3. they've restored the backup and were able to boot it up again but now everything was messed up, the GUI had half of things missing, they weren't able to run DOCKER etc. and, at this point, they aren't even able to access the FLASH drive as, when they open it in GUI, it shows up empty so, perhaps, everything is working from cache now and after reboot it's all bye bye. QUESTION: How can we help them? Currently, we are in a possession of one BASIC licence (that we have for testing purposes in our office) that we would like to use in order to repair that system. They are willing to purchase a licence IF we are able to restore the system but we don't want to purchase any additional licences in order to attempt this repair. IDEALLY: 1. We reboot their server, the USB key is NOT messed up and we are able to copy stuff from it 2. We either use a trial licence or our own BASIC licence to copy their config and other necessary stuff so it does not break the array and then somehow either get to the point where we are asked to purchase another key or use the BASIC one with the standard procedure mentioned on the WIKI. IN A NUTSHELL: we keep the config but remove all the cracked stuff so it won't interfere and then use our BASIC licence to register the new key and restore the system as it was Another question: if the system was PRO but it had only 5 devices, will it be possible to use that config with the new BASIC key and licence? Hopefully this was clear enough. Please note that we don't endorse any kind of unlicensed software and we feel that they've got what they deserve but this is our very good client that we really want to help and straighten everything up. Thanks in advance!
  6. Hello, the issue here is that any Macrium v.7+ has this option disabled, for some reason. You can not convert images anymore. I realized, for now, the only way I was able to do it is to actually clone the .mrimg to an SSD, boot from it and then make a .iso file from within it. This is a lot of hassle...
  7. Hello, we have our backups done mainly through Macrium Reflect cloning software and all images are in .mrimg file. Anyone knows the fastest procedure to mount those images as VM? Ideally, we would be able to just boot from those images directly - something that MacriumViBoot is able to do through Hyper-V. What would the options be? Thanks in advance!
