Error when starting vm

Featured Replies

Hi. I am getting an error when starting a vm that i created on the unRAID server. The error reads:

 

"internal error: early end of file from monitor: possible problem:

If i have a look in the logs, i find this error:

 

"Domain id=7 is tainted: high-privileges

I am still new to unRAID and Limetech, so have no idea where to start looking for the issue. Does anyone maybe have an idea what might be causing this?

 

I am running unRAID 6 with a plus license and it is running on Linux 4.1.18. I create the vm with 100GB drive space to be stored on one of my array disks that contains a share i created for vm's. It was created with 4GB RAM and using 2 cpu cores and is pointed to a server 2012 os iso that is in another share on the server.

 

Any advice would be highly appreciated.

 

Thanks in advance,

 

Alex.

You most likely have to enable the ACS override described here.

That will separate your devices into their own iommu groups and you should be able to pass it through.
