weird VM issues

[alexsd]

v6.4.1

 

my daily win10 VM bricked due to a litany of issues caused by a power outage, so i've been working on getting unraid back up and am trying to start with a fresh VM.  i'm experiencing a few issues (possibly bugs), unless my newbness is shining.

 

first, the "OS Install ISO" dropdown is blank, even though i have a share for my OS ISOs. see attached for both.  i tried manually applying "/mnt/user/VirtualMachineISOs/en_windows_10_enterprise_x64_dvd_6851151.iso" for the OS path, but just get a blank screen on boot.  i've used the same ISO in the past successfully.  not really sure where to go from here.   if i recall correctly that dropdown used to provide a small browse window that would allow for the ISO selection.  weird it's blank now.

 

second, i can create and start a VM automatically without ever applying an "OS Install ISO" file.  seems like an ISO selection would be a requirement prior to the "Create" button being enabled.

 

please let me know if i'm missing something simple!

 

thanks.

Confirm the default ISO storage path (Settings, VM Settings, advanced view) is properly set to your ISO share

Unless you're using an existing VDISK in which case its not.
