I was using the above mentioned plugin on 6.8+ and had not till today had a chance to update to 6.9

So did the update checks which told me the above plugin isnt supported in 6.9... so no problems... removed the plugin and then did another check which told me im good to go.

Im now in 6.9 but get a warning in "fix common problems".

Quote

vfio-pci.ids or xen-pciback.hide found within syslinux.cfg. For best results on Unraid 6.9+, it is recommended to remove those methods of isolating devices for use within a VM and instead utilize the options within Tools - System Devices

 

Anyone know how to fix this issue?

When i look at the flash drive I can see in /boot/config that there is a vfio-pci.cfg in there. Is it as simple as deleting that cfg? Or is it more involved than that?

 

Cheers in advance.

Please check if you have anything appended to your syslinux.cfg ('Main' -> click on the blue text 'Flash'):

 

like in my case like3 'pci=noaer'.

Remove it if you have appended 'xen-pciback.hide=YOURMETHODE' click on 'Apply' and reboot.

What are the contents of this file?

Do a 'cat /boot/config/vfio-pci.cfg' and post the output here.

I would do a screen shot but I havent worked out how to screen shot with a Mac yet lol

 

Below is what is appended to my syslinux.cfg

Quote

kernel /bzimage
append vfio-pci.ids=8086:105e,10de:13c2,10de:0fbb,1022:145f,1b73:1100 pcie_acs_override=downstream,multifunction isolcpus=3-5,15-17 initrd=/bzroot

 

And cat /boot/config/vfio-pci.cfg

Quote

root@Tower:~# cat /boot/config/vfio-pci.cfg
BIND=42:00.0
root@Tower:~# 

 

Odd that 42:00.0 is 1b73:1100 which in in my syslinux
