August 16, 20214 yr I've noticed (don't exactly know since when) that I can't stop my VMs anymore from the UnRAID-GUI, only Force-Stop works. VMs that are running: Windows 10 Windows Server 2019 Ubuntu Server (x3) Same problem with all of them. What is the difference anyway between Stop and Force-Stop? Thanks in advance! 🙂 homeserver-diagnostics-20210816-1056.zip Edited August 17, 20214 yr by Turnspit
August 16, 20214 yr 5 hours ago, Turnspit said: difference anyway between Stop and Force-Stop Stop sends a shutdown command to the VM. This may or may not work, because as we all know especially on Windows a dialog may popup saying that it can't shutdown because of such and such task. Force stop is equivalent to yanking the cord out of a computer
January 14, 20242 yr I have this issue with Windows VMs even after I shut them down gracefully in VNC. But I still have to force stop them. So in theory they should not be asking for any more user input - unless there is something happening that VNC is not picking up? Pulling the plug is presumably not ideal in case an app doesn't close gracefully in windows?
