effingheck Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 Hi all, So I think there is an issue with Windows 10 VM's and unRAID 6.3.1. My vm was working completely fine, booting up and restarting etc without issue. Upgrade to v6.3.1 and now I find the whole unRAID system hangs and i have to do a hard reset of my server when booting up the VM. I can recreate this on demand and it generally works like this: Boot up VM - all ok Shutdown VM Boot up VM - Crashes unRAID Hard Reset - Start Array - Dockers etc. Boot up VM - all ok Shutdown VM - Boot up VM - Crashes unRAID etc. etc. To further add to this, a colleague also upgraded to v6.3.1 and mentioned his VM's are also crashing unRAID and requires a hard reset. There certainly seems to be a correlation between this new update and system crashes as I can see other threads reporting similar issues. I've attached diagnostics - I'm happy to go through any troubleshooting steps! Many Thanks tower-diagnostics-20170221-0846.zip Quote Link to comment
1812 Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 upgrade to 6.3.2, update machine type to highest setting and recheck. if problem persists, then post problem in 6.3.2 release thread. Quote Link to comment
effingheck Posted February 21, 2017 Author Share Posted February 21, 2017 Thanks 1812 - must have missed that incremental update! I'll update and check again then report back to the release thread. Cheers. Quote Link to comment
1812 Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 I don't think it will fix it, but it won't make it any worse, but that's the steps to resolution. Quote Link to comment
darianf Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 Same issue here... Unraid 6.3.2 My unraid box crashed when i tried to restart a Linux VM, following a dist-upgrade and nvidia driver update... Unraid froze... As a result, the windows 10 VM which was running in parallel at that time is not starting anymore. few days earlier, the same win 10 vm did not start (froze on blue windows logo, without reaching the login), after machine version upgraded from i440fx 2.5 to 2.7. Also, it did not start after passing through a usb pcie card... Overall, i feel it's hit and miss result... Will try to collect more information and post in the apropriate thread Quote Link to comment
darianf Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 just a though, will try to play with the usb controllers settings in bios to see if it matters how the hand-off to the OS occurs (enabled / disabled) Quote Link to comment
