i know the issue is with the GPU or the pic slot its on,  has anyone had this issue before, if so how can one fix?....  anymore info needed Please let me know

 

I have tried stripping the rig down, complete software reset, everything i can think of to get this puppy back online with no luck

 

Cheers

I'm not sure what changed for you, however you have over 32 iommu groups, so you need to use the hot fix to fix this here https://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=44010.msg420830#msg420830

or wait for 6.2 (which should be soon) as the fix is included.

Current version of UnRAID only supports up to 32 IOMMU groups without patch. Just an oversight, was likely assumed to be enough, and for some it isn't.

I am unsure of the issue with this, would likely need more information.

You may want to post the full output of the diagnostics option from the WebUI, as this will have more usable information to help pinpoint this.

I have uploaded the zip file created by the diagnostic section

g-a-m-e-b-o-x-diagnostics-20151216-1902.zip

That's a lot of stuff!

 

Maybe try this..

Remove the sound card from the XML using the builtin Edit function of UnRAID, save.

Edit XML function, scroll near the bottom in between the <devices> and </devices> tags in your domain XML.

 

Add this:

<hostdev mode='subsystem' type='pci' managed='yes'>
      <driver name='vfio'/>
      <source>
        <address domain='0x0000' bus='0x09' slot='0x00' function='0x0'/>
      </source>
    </hostdev>

Save, start VM, let me know.

 

If this does work, if you edit the VM with the built in editor it will remove this entry.
