I'm running a server with an Unraid VM on it. After a couple of hours, the VM pauses and stops running a Helix Core host (file sharing and revision history service). I believe this is due to the vdisk reaching it's capacity (as shown in the screenshot below). When it pauses, I have to power cycle the server to get it running again. 1) Is there any easier way to get it off of the paused state? 2) How can I avoid getting to a paused state? Thanks in advance for the help.

Use a larger storage device for the vdisk? Also make sure the vdisk is being trimmed: https://forums.unraid.net/topic/51703-vm-faq/?do=findComment&comment=557606

Also check you have set power options not to suspend etc.

I think this was the issue. It was set to 30 minutes, which is about the time it would take to pause itself. I'll continue this thread if the issue continues. But thank you for the help. Also thanks JorgeB in particular for sticking with me.
