Installing a Windows 10 VM on UnRaid

For BIOS, select OVMF

Installing Windows 10 in a VM on UnRaid requires installing 3rd party drivers. When the install process gets to the point of specifying the hard drive to install on, there will be no selections available. At this point, install the following drivers from their respective “amd64” folders:

  Balloon
  NetKVM
  vioserial
  viostor

Helpful notes from a user group

I didn't realise snapshotting virtual machines on unRAID was so easy with SSH.

After spending too much time over the weekend testing GUI options for KVM management with unRAID and being disappointed, I learnt that it's super easy using SSH if you have configured your VM correctly. Configuration

Machine: Q35-6.2

BIOS: SeaBIOS (OVMF cannot create snapshots when the VM is running.)

Primary vDisk Type: qcow2 Commands List Virtual Machines

virsh list –all List Snapshots

virsh snapshot-list <vm-name> Create Snapshot

virsh snapshot-create <vm-name> Create Snapshot With Name

virsh snapshot-create-as <vm-name> –name <snapshot-name> Shutdown Virtual Machine

virsh shutdown <vm-name>

Shutting down the virtual machine before snapshotting is recommended, but not required. Revert Snapshot

virsh snapshot-revert <vm-name> <snapshot-name> Delete Snapshot

virsh snapshot-delete <vm-name> <snapshot-name>

You must delete all snapshots before removing the VM through unRAID as it throws an error and wont let you delete the VM. Snapshot Info

virsh snapshot-info <vm-name> <snapshot-name>
