IKWeb Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 Hello Forum Have a quick question - I have a few VM’s running and they keep entering suspended or paused state - I have disabled all power saving option within Windows 10 itself (the VM) but I cant work out what’s causing the VM to do this. Is there any way I can keep them running ? Thanks Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 Usually that's an out of space problem on the filesystem containing the vdisks, you should post the diagnostics. Quote Link to comment

I am new to UNRAID - Where can I get the Diags from ? The Cache disks is 1TB in size and only using 6% Edited February 20, 2020 by IKWeb Quote Link to comment

JorgeB Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 Where are the vdisks located? You're using /mnt/user path and the domains shares exists on both cache and disk1. Quote Link to comment

JorgeB Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 Stop all VMs and the VM service, change Domains share to cache="prefer" and run the mover, then post new diags. Quote Link to comment

So when I did this I watched the sapce on the Cache disk when I invoked the mover and saw space used going up - So I assume the HDD have been moved to the cache disk now? attached are the diags Thank you Edited February 22, 2020 by IKWeb Quote Link to comment

Yes, share only exists on cache now, if nothing else performance will be better, but there wasn't any lack of space issue, still see if it makes any difference. Quote Link to comment

Worries me that VM's are on a cache and its one drive. Need to see what PCI-E slots are in the Dell server and look at a PCIE card that I can put 2 MVME drives on to allow some kinda redundancy. Either than or UNRAID support LOT - But I feel thats a long way off. Quote Link to comment
itimpi Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 Many people simply make regular backups of the VM vdisk files to the array. Quote Link to comment
