Hi Guys,

 

I am having no luck with this unRaid. Anyway my problem is VM pauses itself after a certain period of time. Don't know what to upload. So I am uploading Digonosis and please see VM logs and I pasted XML as well. Any help will be appreciated.

I'm Having the same issue.

It started after adding a new drive

I've added another cache drive so the issue isn't no cache space.

I have reduced the memory, Dashboard says 74% memory usage when on.

I've attempted using 1 CPU core, No help there

I've removed gpu pass-through, Disabled Hyper-V.....

 

The last thing I am currently testing is copying the vm disk to a HDD and create a new vm with that disk, its taking a while as its pretty large (600GB)

If anyone has any other methods to try please let me know

What are the specs of your server cpu & memory?

I'm seeing this same issue.  It's recent, though.  I created this VM more than a month ago and it's been running flawlessly until yesterday, where this same "pausing itself" behavior reared its ugly head.  It seems like it might be CPU or Network load related as I can start up the VM and leave it idle with no issue and it'll pause after streaming video for a few minutes (streaming via Plex).  Here's my XML and log, if it'll help.

Was this issue ever resolved?  I am now experiencing this with my newly created VM

 

I found the root cause to this issue.  My cache drive was running out of space so the VM was being automatically paused by KVM.  For anyone that comes across this thread in the future, please check your cache drive for free space.

My VM is not on a chache drive and it pauses ran fine untill yesterday

Hi i'm haveing the same issue 

And have you checked the free space on the drive that is holding the vdisk?  IE: did you over provision the vdisk and it now won't fit on the drive?

Necropost.

 

Anyone else have anything to offer on this subject?  If I'm connected via RDC or VNC (Splashtop) then the Win10 VM works fine. If I close the connection, the system won't run headless - it'll suspend/sleep within 30 minutes.

 

I've got a long multi-day batch file conversion process running and needless to say, it's not going well because of this.

All hibernate/sleep options are turned off, performance set to max, etc.  I believe the issue may be specific to a particular application.  I wrote a small batch script to output the time to the command prompt every 30 seconds and that never stops or misses a beat, indicating the VM isn't suspending.

 

So, doesn't seem related to this thread.
