I updated my system to 6.1 and have an other one still running 6.0.1

I have a VM on my 6.1 system that i created on 6.0.1. I swear it was running fine before, but now it spawns the following error:

 

"Unsupported configuration: IDE controllers are unsupported for this QEMU binary or machine type"

 

To be sure, i copied the XML from a currently running VM on my 6.0.1 machine and just changed the drive locations.

It just gives the same error.

 

Edit: Seems when selecting i440fx machine type it works again, but why did it work before on Q35?

 

This was my q35 xml:

Has something changed in QEMU on unraid 6.1.

It's a VM who needs ide drives, not virtio.

In short, there is a bug that will be addressed in 6.1.1.  If I remember, I'll post instructions on how to manually edit your XML later to solve.

Allright. Good to know this is bug related

 

There's no rush. The system running 6.1 is not the one actually needing the ide controller.

I use it to create the vm's.

Then move them to the other systems.

 

Thx for replying Jon!
