My setup:

Unraid version: 

Version 6.9.2 2021-04-07

 

M/B: Hewlett-Packard 1589 Version 0.00 - s/n: CZC4457NYP

BIOS: Hewlett-Packard Version J61 v03.69. Dated: 03/25/2014

CPU: Intel® Xeon® CPU E5-1650 v2 @ 3.50GHz

HVM: Not Available

IOMMU: Not Available

Cache: 384 KiB, 1536 KiB, 12 MB

Memory: 16 GiB DDR3 Multi-bit ECC (max. installable capacity 256 GiB)

 

Graphics:

 

NVIDIA Quadro K2000

Nvidia Driver Version:470.103.01

 

Information on CPU:

https://ark.intel.com/content/www/us/en/ark/products/75780/intel-xeon-processor-e51650-v2-12m-cache-3-50-ghz.html

Intel® Virtualization Technology (VT-x) ‡Yes

Intel® Virtualization Technology for Directed I/O (VT-d) ‡Yes

Intel® VT-x with Extended Page Tables (EPT) ‡Yes

 

It says "Not Available" in the Info-screen on my server, but Intel says both VT-x and VT-d are available on this CPU.

I used this guide to enable hardware acceleration with GPU in Plex. It says in the guide that I can´t use the GPU with VM´s.

 

 

 

Is it possible for me to install a VM, somehow using the capabilities of my CPU, even though Unraid says it is not available ?
