RubyRose96 Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 (edited) So I logged into one of my vm's this morning to find it had paused overnight. Checking on the unraid gui the unassigned drive pased through to the vm was reporting as full, but when I rebooted the vm the drive was only showing as about half full. Is there any reason unraid isn't seing the usage correctly? EDIT: the only workaround i've found so far is to move everything off of the drive image, remove the image and recreate it.

You can't mount a passed through disk with UD. You are mounting the disk with UD and then checking the 'Pass Thru'. That's not how it works. You mark the disk as 'Pass Thru' and don't mount it with UD. UD won't let you mount it if it is marked 'Pass Thru'. When UD mounts the disk and your VM is using it as a passed through disk, it will get corrupted. Quote Link to comment
RubyRose Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 If I try to stay the VM without mounting the disk first I get this error. So where am I going wrong here? Quote Link to comment

If using a vdisk then the Pass thru option should NOT be checked. You only use that option when the VM has complete control of the whole physical drive. Quote Link to comment
