Thanks for the note. I will definitely keep a backup going forward. Restart did resolve.

I made a mistake trying to manually create a VM basing it on saved xml from one of my VMs. Now I can't start libvirt. I'm trying to figure out how to revert as I don't have the xml for all of my VMs. Can I get an assist? tower-diagnostics-20230308-1133.zip

EDIT: Disregard! I saw the comment about changing the <os> section of the xml and it's booting up correctly. I'm new to unraid and vms in general (not including parallels desktop lol), so this has been enlightening! Amazing amount of support! I'm sure this is a noob question, but I have been reading through this thread and may have just missed the solution. I had Mojave running after install, and wanted to add cores/ram. I did that, added the lines at the bottom, changed the virtio network entry, and removed the topology. It does boot all the way, but the bottom 2/3rds are black with the apple logo and the upper 1/3rd is what looks like desktop. No graphics card installed.
