November 24, 201510 yr Author Probably a very slim chance. Unless you put unRAID to sleep as well, there really isn't much power saving putting a VM to sleep. Thanks archedraft. Ok next mission, have you tried getting it to boot with clover using waschbenzin's clover image from insanelymac? I tried everything and all i'm getting is +++++++++ from clover when I'm booting from the HDD. No I have not messed with clover, @peter_sm is using it however. I have nothing against clover but "if it ain't broke"... Maybe @peter_sm would post a how-to on how he is using clover with unRAID? Seems to have a lot of interest.

November 24, 201510 yr There are info about clover on archdraft blog , I have followed that, works great.
November 24, 201510 yr Author Oh that's right, here is the snippet of it: danofun says: October 29, 2015 at 5:56 pm Edit I was able to successfully upgrade to El Capitan using these steps. – Followed the above to successfully install Yosemite – Once installed, boot into Yosemite then download Clover EFI bootoader – Install without UEFI (choose setting install boot0af in MBR) – after the installation completes, copy /EFI/Clover/config.plist to ~/Desktop – download and open Clover Configurator – within Clover Configurator open ~/Desktop/config.plist – in the RT Variables section change CsrActiveConfig to 0x3 – in the ACPI section uncheck FixLAN – in the SMBIOS section run the wizard and select an appropriate template (for me 14.1) – I am using a PowerColor R9 270 video card and had to inject a fakeid of 0x68101002 in the Devices section -> Fake ID -> ATI – save ~/Desktop/config.plist – replace /EFI/Clover/config.plist with the config.plist you just modified – shutdown the VM – in the unRAID OSX VM xml, delete the chameleon line – boot your VM and it should load the Clover bootloader – once booted back into Yosemite using the Clover bootloader, download Install OS X El Capitan Application from the Mac App Store. When complete, the app will open. Please note, the Application will disappear after use. – Choose Yosemite system drive for install (Example: Macintosh HD). When complete, the computer will automatically reboot. – When Clover boot screen appears, choose Boot OS X Install option (Example: Boot OS X Install from Macintosh HD). Choosing your system drive will go back to your previous installation without updating. – Complete the OS X installation process. When complete, the computer will automatically reboot. – When Clover boot screen appears, choose Boot Mac OS X option (Example: Boot Mac OS X from Macintosh HD). The computer will then complete the update. – copy /EFI/Clover/config.plist to ~/Desktop – in the RT Variables section change CsrActiveConfig to 0x67 – save ~/Desktop/config.plist – replace /EFI/Clover/config.plist with the config.plist you just modified – reboot and you’re done
November 24, 201510 yr I do like this.... in my go file I have added this #Copy icon for OSX VM cp /boot/osx.png /usr/local/emhttp/plugins/dynamix.vm.manager/templates/images //Peter
November 24, 201510 yr Awesome! (but how do you change it after the VM is created? I don't see a spot in the XML ) EDIT NVM figured it out <metadata> <vmtemplate name="Custom" icon="ubuntu.png" os="ubuntu"/> </metadata>
November 25, 201510 yr Gotta admit, I am stumped. It wont boot past DSMOS. I think it's because I cannot extract the OSK key from my Mac. I get the standard error message. Does anyone else have a compiled binary of that extraction tool? The one I am using is definitely not working.
November 25, 201510 yr Shut down OSX VM ! I have stared to use ssh to shut down OSX from unraid, and it looks like it works nicely :-) Work in progress.....
November 25, 201510 yr Author Shut down OSX VM ! I have stared to use ssh to shut down OSX from unraid, and it looks like it works nicely :-) Work in progress..... You have sparked my interest! I see you're going for my favorite person for a second day in a row [emoji3]
November 25, 201510 yr Howto shutdown a remote host Please try this and let me know if changes needed Step One - Generate your public keys on unRAID ssh-keygen You'll see three prompts; you can hit return for the default save location, and leave the passphrase empty Enter file in which to save the key (/root/.ssh/id_rsa): Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase): Enter same passphrase again: Step Two - Set up the remote machine Copy the public key to remote machine cd /root/.ssh ssh-copy-id -i id_rsa.pub [email protected] Enter password for OSX Password: Login to remote-host without entering the password ssh [email protected] Check to make sure that only the key(s) you wanted were added. Should be .ssh/authorized_keys Modify /etc/sudoers on remote.host with visudo sudo visudo Adding the line below to that file. ( You need to handle vi command to edit/save the file) yourusername ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /sbin/shutdown It could looks like this with several command added, see line started with peter ## User privilege specification ## root ALL=(ALL) ALL %admin ALL=(ALL) ALL peter ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /sbin/poweroff, /sbin/reboot, /sbin/shutdown Done On unRAID side to shutdown OSX ssh [email protected] sudo shutdown -h now
November 25, 201510 yr Author Works! Great job BTW! A few comments: [*]The user must enable "Remote Login" under sharing in order for SSH to work (sort of a duh but someone is going to ask why it isn't working if we don't add that step) [*]For those who like editing with Nano instead of Vi, here is what I did https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1162051#p1162051 [*]Don't we have to copy the .ssh files back to /root/.ssh on every unRAID boot? See below for what I am doing I have the powerdown plugin installed so I created a S00.sh script that copies back our .ssh folder on boot. First copy our .ssh folder and files to somewhere on your flash drive (mine is /boot/custom/) rsync -aqX /root/.ssh /boot/custom/ Now lets create the start script that will copy back of the folders on boot cd /boot/config/plugins/powerdown/rc.unRAID.d nano S00.sh rsync -aqX /boot/custom/.ssh /root/ chmod 600 /root/.ssh/id_rsa chmod 644 /root/.ssh/id_rsa.pub chmod 644 /root/.ssh/known_hosts Also I created a K00.sh file that will shutdown my Mac OS X when the server gets turned off cd /boot/config/plugins/powerdown/rc.unRAID.d nano K00.sh ssh MacUserName@IP_ADDRESS sudo shutdown -h now
November 26, 201510 yr Author FYI it would appear that unRAID force shuts down the OS X VM before the K00 script gets triggered. Need to think of a different way to send the shutdown command. I wonder if there is a way to modify the virsh command sent to the OS X VM to be the ssh shutdown command instead... Hmmm

See below for what I am doing 1 : Need to be added to the guide 3: Nano is easier :-) 3: yes, I copied the /root/.ssh folder to my flash (/boot/custom), then in the go file I copy the folder to the original place and this is important. chmod 600 /root/.ssh/id_rsa chmod 644 /root/.ssh/id_rsa.pub chmod 644 /root/.ssh/known_hosts You can add chmod 700 /root/.ssh I have done this several times, some steps was forgotten :-) but you find them ;-) Please feel free to set up a guid on your blog, now you know how to do it ;-) Need to look into the K0x.sh file, I have it in there but need to verify if that is the proper way to do this from? //Peter
November 26, 201510 yr ... Hmmm Maybe there is a solution to this , look a this hook script ! https://libvirt.org/hooks.html //Peter
November 26, 201510 yr Give it a try an let us know if any issues coming up :-) There are always issue with what we do I can't seem to get clover to boot for the life of me, are you using the VMF-pure-efi.fd bios Peter? If i use the EFI/Clover: <target dev='hdb' bus='virtio'/> Clover stops booting, I'm guessing it doesn't know about the virtio driver and if I set it as SATA, ie: <target dev='hdb' bus='sata'/> EFI Bios doesn't see the disk. Cheers.
November 26, 201510 yr Author ... Hmmm Maybe there is a solution to this , look a this hook script ! https://libvirt.org/hooks.html //Peter Do you understand the part about when the libvirt daemon is shut down, this script is called as:/etc/libvirt/hooks/daemon - shutdown - shutdown? I am trying to understand how to make it so that the script is only called when libvirt is getting shutdown but I am not sure how to make the script a shutdown only script??

Cheers. I don't have anything in my xml that pointing to clover, follow the guide same pages back, that I use. //Peter
November 27, 201510 yr Ok got past my SMK key error Next question...are you guys just passing through your videocard in the web gui or has everyone edited the XML? I have my GT 740 and want to try it out. Thanks!
November 27, 201510 yr Author You have to manually edit the XML. For anything custom like OS X you have to manually edit the XML. See the guide for more info on graphics passthrough.
November 27, 201510 yr I don't have anything in my xml that pointing to clover, follow the guide same pages back, that I use. //Peter Wow, Thanks for your help peter. It's all happening, I even passed the GPU and the GTX 970 is happy with OSX. I'm having a problem with the USB though, I'm passing the entire controller. But when I'm passing the controller through the keyboard is working at Clover, but I'm getting a kernel panic on boot. "unable to find driver for this platform: \"ACPI\".../IOPlatformExpert.cpp:1665" Does my passthrough look ok to you guys? I've also tried USBBusFix=Yes but it doesn't seem to help.
