February 17, 20179 yr Hi all i have a question about vm and pxe if i install windows on a vm is there a way i can pxe to it and use it as a desktop ? sorry for my english The term you are looking for is RDP, and yes that's the way many people use windows VM's. pxe is for using remote storage to boot and run a diskless workstation. Not really what a VM does.
February 17, 20179 yr Author ok but if i want to boot via pxe is there a way i can do it with a vm ? like having a vm running on unraid and boot it via pxe ?
February 17, 20179 yr ok but if i want to boot via pxe is there a way i can do it with a vm ? like having a vm running on unraid and boot it via pxe ? I'm afraid I don't understand what you wish to do. Could you briefly describe the hardware and layout for what you want?

February 19, 20179 yr i want to install windows 7 64 bit to unraid as a vm and i want to pxe boot to it Why do you want to pxe boot? You do not have to passthough an entire hard drive in order to set up a VM, so I'm thinking that its rather pointless if the pxe server is hosted on unRaid.

This is an old post which also happens to come on top on Google Search results. I have an unRAID server and a diskless workstation. I want it to boot a VM image. In 2018, is there any way to do this with unRAID?
