lance1982 Posted November 2, 2020 Author Share Posted November 2, 2020 ive tried un assigning the cores and gpus and reattaching and fresh new installs of windows 10 and linux. ive checked iommu is enabled and vt-d. and checked the iommu groups are split in devices like before upgrade.

jonp Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 Hi there, So if you create a new VM from scratch, new virtual disk, and install Windows, does that not work at all? If you changed the motherboard/CPU, your PCI devices may have new IDs and therefore you may need to reassign them to your VMs by editing the VM and then saving. 1 Quote Link to comment
lance1982 Posted November 3, 2020 Author Share Posted November 3, 2020 no i just changed the cpu and not the motherboard. ive tried a few attempts at starting a new vm and most freeze. one installed fully but on restart it would after install it said error could not find the storage Quote Link to comment

DarkKnight Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 There's a lot going on here. You should set the system date and time in BIOS. It should have a current time unless you reset the CMOS. If you did not reset the CMOS, then check the motherboard battery to see if it needs replacement. There are a lot of errors in your logs that you seemed to have ignored, like QEMU being unable to find your vdisk images. I would not, as a matter of best practices, use an external hard drive to host anything that requires realtime interaction like a VM. External drives, unless connected via eSATA or SAS should be used for storage only. Put your VMs either on the cache drive or on an internal drive outside the array using the unassigned devices app. 1 Quote Link to comment
jonp Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 Hi Lance, With everything going on here, you may need to work with an expert to review the system and figure out the problem. All of your posts here contain lots of information, but nothing really crystal clear as to what is causing the issue. We do offer professional services for a fee if you're interested. You can schedule a session with us via https://unraid.net/services. If you'd rather keep working through here, what I would do is completely start from scratch. Also I wouldn't use an external hard drive the way you are. I'm also confused as to how libvirt can't find the storage for your VMs unless you're doing something like passing through the storage device that also contains the vdisk images themselves.

lance1982 Posted November 6, 2020 Author Share Posted November 6, 2020 so if i start from scratch. how do i get the key re-set?? Quote Link to comment

lance1982 Posted November 6, 2020 Author Share Posted November 6, 2020 unraid will only boot in gui mode. if you boot normal. seems ok but network down and cant access it. Quote Link to comment
lance1982 Posted November 12, 2020 Author Share Posted November 12, 2020 Still not resolved. Upgraded nvme cache drive and used old nvme to put my windows 10 on. Won’t boot in normal mode.. only gui mode and can’t create vms unless on separate drive to cache and array. Only works in unassigned devices... ☹️ Still can’t get to work correctly Quote Link to comment

So no longer external. Still got the same problems with qemu. I do have my big graphics card working. But still can only boot in gui mode in unraid. Any ideas please??? 😊 Quote Link to comment
