Trucking Geek Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 So I had a Win10 VM to monitor my WebCams, but the software was failing to start due to 0ver 85% Ram utilization. (From Logs) So in trying to test some fixes to the issue, I corrupted that VM and it won't even start now. No problem. Everything it was doing was saved to shares, so no data loss. BUT When I installed a new Win 10 VM with 8GB of RAM, it has 93% Ram Use, with no software installed. I have read of possible Driver issues, so have moved from VirtIO 185 to 208, but there is no change in RAM Use. I have increased allocation to the VM to 12GB, and use stays same. Does anyone have any experience with this issue? Quote Link to comment
Squid Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 Where are you seeing the Ram use? Within Unraid's dashboard or within the VM? Quote Link to comment
Trucking Geek Posted November 4, 2021 Author Share Posted November 4, 2021 Within the VM. Dashboard is showing 35% (50% is allocated to VM) Also, this is running on my Cams Server. Cams 6TB unRAID 6.10.0-rc2 Basic - ASUS Prime Z390-A : i7-9700 : 16GB DDR4 : 2x WD60EFZX : F40 Quote Link to comment

Trucking Geek Posted November 4, 2021 Author Share Posted November 4, 2021 This seemed to solve it for the New VM. But my software is running on it also. I will have to see if it continues to work long term. Thank you to everyone who helped me!!! Quote Link to comment
