Hi all,

 

I'm having a problem with a new Windows 10 (build 1511) install. It replaced a Windows 7 VM (image backed up) and is now the only VM setup in unRIAD.

 

Install went smoothly and uses a legit key and initially ran for 12+ hours before either crashing or shutting down and now runs for less than 5 hours before crashing or shutting down again. After some googling i have verified that there is sufficient free space on the host drive and have also restarted unRAID, but no change.

 

(virtio-win-0.1.102)

 

This is what shows in the log,

2015-11-15 11:12:51.434+0000: starting up libvirt version: 1.2.18, qemu version: 2.3.0
Domain id=1 is tainted: high-privileges
Domain id=1 is tainted: host-cpu
char device redirected to /dev/pts/0 (label charserial0)
qemu: terminating on signal 15 from pid 5347
2015-11-15 14:28:14.903+0000: shutting down

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated 

Can’t really give much help but I have Win 10 installed before the 1511 upgrade and that worked fine.

Since I noticed that my desktop PC got the upgrade I checked my VM but Windows update didn’t offer the upgrade. I decided to use the Microsoft download tool and do the upgrade to 1511 that way and it looked ok until the first reboot when came back with an error message saying the upgrade failed during the reboot. I checked the error message but it was not listed at Microsoft.

I checked your log and it doesn’t look any different from what I have for a working Win 10 VM.

 

Edit: Using one CPU as suggested below fixed this

You have to use only one cpu for the vm for it to upgrade properly.

Well after going through all the settings i could think of, i discovered that "Power Options, Change Plan Settings, Change Advanced Power Settings, Sleep, Hibernate After" was set to 180 minutes.

 

Slightly embarrasing, although a bit strange, as i had alredady set the machine to not go to sleep. Sorted now though.

 

Thanks to all that replied.
