IronRooster Posted June 29, 2022 Share Posted June 29, 2022 Hello! I recently upgraded to 6.10.3 and now my primary VM on my machine is not starting, and gives the following error: Quote internal error: process exited while connecting to monitor: 2022-06-29T19:24:59.930494Z qemu-system-x86_64: -blockdev {"driver":"file","filename":"/dev/disk/by-id/ata-Samsung_SSD_870_QVO_2TB_S6RXXXXXXXXJ","node-name":"libvirt-1-storage","cache":{"direct":false,"no-flush":false},"auto-read-only":true,"discard":"unmap"}: 'file' driver requires '/dev/disk/by-id/ata-Samsung_SSD_870_QVO_2TB_S6XXXXXXXXXXXJ' to be a regular file Other VMs start, and I'm not sure why this one isn't. It has been running without a problem for the past several versions of Unraid. The /dev/disk/by-id/ link should not be a regular file - those are always symlinks to the /dev/sdx device, so I don't understand why it is complaining. Any thoughts or insights would be great! config is below <?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?> <domain type='kvm' xmlns:qemu='http://libvirt.org/schemas/domain/qemu/1.0'> <name>Uther BigSur

Solution ghost82 Posted June 30, 2022 Solution Share Posted June 30, 2022 You need disk type='block' (not file) for the passed through disk (by-id). 1 Quote Link to comment
IronRooster Posted July 1, 2022 Author Share Posted July 1, 2022 Thank you for that! I wound up figuring it out by putting the drive into a new VM under the Form View, and then copying the XML it created. A bit frustrating that the upgrade didn't catch and update it, but very happy to have my machines back up and running! Quote Link to comment
