Autchirion Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 Hey Guys, I switched to unraid a couple of days ago, since then my home automation is down, because I didn't find a good solution to get my raspberrymatic running. They offer different setup methots, like on a raspberry pi or a virtual box image (ova). All the options can be found here: https://github.com/jens-maus/RaspberryMatic/releases/tag/3.55.5.20201226 What I'm wondering, is it possible to get one of these options running in raspberrymatic without creating an linux vm which then runs virtualbox to host my home automation system? Have a great day, Autchi Quote Link to comment
Energen Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 (edited) Seems that the linux vm route is the only way.. unless anything has changed since 2016. Edited December 28, 2020 by Energen Quote Link to comment
ken-ji Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 Haven't done this myself - but is there any reason why importing the OVA into LibVirt/KVM/QEMU not working for you? Quote Link to comment
Autchirion Posted December 29, 2020 Author Share Posted December 29, 2020 (edited) I was not aware of the ovo into QEMU option, so I didn't even consider this. But after some research I also found, that raspberrymatic offers a tutorial for QEMU (I didn't even know until now, that unraid uses QEMU). So, what they suggest for QEMU is: qemu-img convert -O qcow2 RaspberryMatic.vmdk RaspberryMatic.qcow2 qemu-img resize RaspberryMatic.qcow2 +5G qemu-system-i386 -vnc :1 -m 2048 --enable-kvm \ -drive file=RaspberryMatic.qcow2,if=virtio \ -netdev user,id=network0 -net nic,model=virtio,macaddr=00:00:00:00:00:01 -net tap,ifname=tap0 \ -chardev socket,path=/tmp/qga.sock,server,nowait,id=qga0 \ -device virtio-serial -device virtserialport,chardev=qga0,name=org.qemu.guest_agent.0 This is copy paste from their tutorial. Are these commands also ok in unraid or should I be carefull (I would love to see this machine also in the VM overview), I don't want to accidentally store it on the flash drive... 🙂 I was able to add the vm and it's comming up, I now I need to verify that everything is running, thank you for your input so far!

Hello, That sounds interesting. Could you share your Options from the Raspberry Pi VM from Unraid VM Tab with us. I have exactly the same problem. I would like to run a Raspberry VM on my Unraid Server and already have a Qcow2 image. Best regards Quote Link to comment

I would like to run a Raspberry VM on my Unraid Server and already have a Qcow2 image. Best regards So, here is the catch, for some reason it didn't work first (or second) try. What I did run it to (including) the part: qemu-img resize RaspberryMatic.qcow2 +5G after that I just create a new VM called Homematic (type Linux), and booted it up. As Disk Type I selected qcow2, but I'm not sure if this matters. After the first boot I just killed it and changed the Primary vDisk Location manually. And then the wait started, weirdly it was up pretty quick and detecting my RF Device, but after that Igot hard stuck. I waited for a night and retried and out of the sudden it worked. So I accepted that and now my homematic is running pretty smooth. <?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?> <domain type='kvm' id='1'> <name>Homematic</name>
