Hi, 

I use three "desktop" VMs (Win,Mac,Linux) with unRAID and each of them has the same GPU passed through, so I can't use them at the same time. 

 

Is there a way to "queue" VM actions so I can for example stop Linux and immediately start Windows from within Linux using the webgui?

Right now I have to use a second device to shut down one VM and then start the other, because once the first shut down is done I cannot interact with UnRAID to start the next VM.

maybe from terminal, something like this:

#!/bin/bash

virsh shutdown $1 && sleep 1 && virsh start $2

(this is only an extremely simple example script - pls dont use it in production)

save as /boot/extra/switch.sh and then, from terminal:
nohup /boot/extra/switch.sh WindowsVMName LinuxVMName &
