Proxmox Serial Port Pass Through Cost
Schlichi, sounds like you have a good plan. I wouldn't spend money on something not really necessary either.
From an OSX stand point, that card will definitely work with the NVidia web drivers. Just follow gridrunner's procedures for passing through an NVidia card in OSX.Hi guys,I just wanted to let you know that I got my GTX 960 yesterday and I'm VERY happy with it.It worked out of the box for me, because I had already installed the NVidia Web Drivers in OS X before (using my GT 710).OS X runs a lot more smooth with the new GPU. Now it really feels like a genuine Mac.However, HEVC Hardware decoding in macOS does NOT work. But that was expected.It does however work in Windows 10 - e.g. With MPC-HC or Kodi (it doesn't work with VLC). I played a few 4K HDR movies and my CPU barely went above 20% while I had perfect playback.:-)I also started downloading a few Game-Demos in Windows 10 to test the cards gaming capabilities. But that took too long yesterday, so I will test that tonight.Now my UNRAID server is perfect for me.GreetsSchlichi.
Yes, you can run an OSX VM on an AMD CPU but not all. Ryzen seems fine. (my test server is an AMD Ryzen 1500x and osx high sierra is running as a VM on that too).Qemu will emulate the type of CPU that we need.(and also the motherboard) We normally emulate the Penryn CPU for OSX sierra and onwards.
However, you can actually pass through more modern CPU functions that your CPU may have by adding them to the XML and therefore increase performance in the guest, for exampleAlso using a dedicated GPU for the VM will give you better performance even if accessing it remotely. The GPU must be supported in the Hackintosh community to work just as a real Hackintosh.
As says earlier you can pass through a GPU to multiple VMs (but not all at once.You can shutdown osx then boot windows with the same GPU)This looks interesting, any source articles or info as to what each of those does. Any idea how much improvement it makes? Hi, I watched the videos by on YouTube and developed an interest for unRaid. I was using KVM before on Ubuntu, but I think I like the whole UI and all the features that it offers. Anyhow, what I'm really interested in is moving from a dedicated hackintosh to a virtualized one as in the video.
I was not sure if you have to have a specific set of hardware in order to get Mac OS running in a virtualized KVM environment. Does the processor I choose make a difference? Can a single graphics card be shared for multiple VM's running at the same time?Any feedback will be greatly appreciated.Hi!I switched to UNRAID just a few weeks ago and I'm VERY happy with it. I even sold my MacMini after getting my macOS VM running smoothly and got a MacBook Air instead. My macOS VM now is a lot faster than my Mac Mini was before. I got a Xeon E3-1231v3 with 4 cores (8 threads). I assigned two cores solely to my VMs and two cores to UNRAID, Plex, TVHeadend etc.First I also thought about having macOS and Windows VMs running at the same time.
But that requires two GPUs for the VMs and doesn't leave enough resources for Plex and all my Dockers. I decided to go for a solution to switch between macOS and Windows and therefore having more powerful VMs (even gaming is possible).Of course you can always get a CPU with more cores - then running macOS and Windows at the same time while still having enough resources for Dockers won't be a problem. Schlichi, I'm glad you got the 960 card working and are happy with the performance. The 960 does everything I need in OSX and works pretty decent in Windows on games at 1080p with medium to high settings, depending on the game.All,I did find out something interesting today with my OSX vm that I'd like to see if anyone else can confirm similar results.
I have all my CPU pinning configured to allow my Mac VM 4 hyper threaded cores, my Win10 vm 4 hyper threaded cores and there are 2 leftover on this 10 core i9 for another vm (runs some backup tasks and an internal DNS server) and unraid.I was looking at the Dashboard in the unraid gui and saw that the first 6 cores between unraid, the odd vm and Windows were all using the hyperthreads pretty evenly. Not dead even as expected, but the load was pretty even across everything when there are processes running in each vm for the cores it's using.On my High Sierra vm though, only half were being consistent and the hyperthreads were barely showing any load on them at all. After seeing this, I tried changing the setting to 8 cores and 1 thread each. There was a definite performance improvement in High Sierra and now the they are all utilized fairly even. I have to assume this has something to do with Unraid as I would think Apple has their use of hyper threads optimized, right? I have a Sonnet card with the FL1100 chipset in my unraid server.
This particular one is about 4 years old and only shows up as 1 controller to pass through. I do not have a Supermicro motherboard though so it does not affect me at all. Everything works as it should.All the other USB controllers on my system are ASMedia. The builtin controllers on the motherboard will passthrough just fine and work as expected and then I have an addon PCI-e card that's an ASMedia chipset too for an additional USB-C port. This card works great in either Windows or OSX.I would have assume based on your testing that any of the FL1100 chipsets are going to cause you problems with the Supermicro board.
Being that you've tried everything else, ASMedia seems to be the path you'll have to try.Thanks man, that's helpful, I am hoping the Asmedia card is the answer to my problems. One last question.Where were you 5 USB cards ago?! Lol Edited February 1, 2018 by CHBMB. On my High Sierra vm though, only half were being consistent and the hyperthreads were barely showing any load on them at all. After seeing this, I tried changing the setting to 8 cores and 1 thread each.
There was a definite performance improvement in High Sierra and now the they are all utilized fairly even. I have to assume this has something to do with Unraid as I would think Apple has their use of hyper threads optimized, right?I have tested this fairly extensively at the link below. Long story short: virtualized windows doesn't care about hyper threaded processor topology and will run each cpu at 100%. OSX doesn't know better and throttles what it perceives has hyper threaded cores to (presumably) not choke the processor. Want the best osx performance? Don't specify a topology.
I just bought this last week for 10.13. It works; however, I have to plug the USB devices directly into it. I have 2 different USB hubs and for some reason High Sierra doesn’t recognize them? 10.11 works with both with out any issues so I have no idea what’s going on.
Good news is the new PCIe card has 4 usb so plugging everything into it is fine. I really wish I knew why the hubs are not working (did 10.13 add some sort of hardware compatibility requirements or maybe a USB 3 controller has to has a USB 3 hub??).ORICO 4-Port USB3.0 PCI-E Expansion Card USB3.0 4 Port PCI Express to USB3.0 Host Controller Adapter Card with 30cm 15PIN SATA to Big 4PIN Power Cord Compatible with Windows,Vista,Linux and Mac OSSo I ended up with a Asmedia 1142 based card, and I've bought a USB 3.0 hub/switch which works fine with it. The Hub/switch is. Hi everyyone,I tried following the tutorial too, but I'm running into an issue. When I try to boot into the installer it takes forever. I've let it run for hours now but only got about 90% of the loading bar done.I hope someone can help me. Has anyone managed to pass through an intel IGD to OSX?I've got my OSX VM running fine using VNC on unRAID 6.4.1 but can't get any output signal if I try to swap to IGD graphics with the XML below.
Pass Through Cost Meaning
I've tried plugging a screen into both the HDMI and DVI ports, neither outputs a signal. I haven't tried the VGA port as I don't have a cable handy.The same hostdev tags work fine for a libreelec VM, so I'm assuming it's a problem on the OSX side?OSX VM boots fine and I can access it via apples screen sharing or nomachine, but the connected display remains black.Do I need to change anything in clover to get this to work? Or is it a lost cause and intel IGD will never work?Here's what OSX system report thinks is happeningThe resolution is different from what I've specified in the clover bios and config.plist, so at least something is changing compared to booting with VNC graphics in the XML.The display preferences pane in system settings report the screen as built-in with 1280x1024 the only option for resolution. As far as I can tell this is not the native resolution of the screen I've got connected or the 27 inch iMac, so not sure where it's coming from.Any advice will be greatly appreciatedcheersJorgen JorgenOSX 50c672ad-610f-9d8c-d0b1-be 4194304 4194304 4 hvm /usr/share/qemu/ovmf-x64/OVMFCODE-pure-efi.fd /etc/libvirt/qemu/nvram/50c672ad-610f-9d8c-d0b1-beVARS-pure-efi.fd destroy restart restart /usr/local/sbin/qemu.
So I ended up with a Asmedia 1142 based card, and I've bought a USB 3.0 hub/switch which works fine with it. The Hub/switch is.I took the step as well to get a USB card for OSX:-)Ordered and works great, and shutdown is OK as well for my SM motherboard.The only issue I have now with my VM is when I shall shut down my VM!instead of shutting down it's restarted. But that was even before I switched to the new card.Anyone that have seen this behavior? It's a lot of info from google about this, and I have tried several things without luck//PeterEdited February 8, 2018 by petersm.

But that was even before I switched to the new card.Anyone that have seen this behavior? It's a lot of info from google about this, and I have tried several things without luck//PeterMine does the same. Try to shutdown leads to the VM restarting. I have no clue where to start with that. I thought gridrunner answered a similar problem back a few pages. To me, it sounds like clover was not installed properly on the USB flash drive you used to create the img file. If clover is loading, the img file is working, but if clover is not finding the disk it is loading from, it sounds like there was a problem during the creation of the disk or installation of clover.I'm also assuming this is before you even get to the installation of OSX?
I don't recall you specifying that.I have a similar issue.I made a macOS usb install media (with a macOS 10.13.3 High Sierra and latest BDU utility) on my windows vm.efi partition and hfs partition seem to be there on the usb stick. I then made the img.via the terminal command and set up the vm in unraid as per the instructions + xml copy and paste.I can boot the vm into clover but there is no option to install macOS.
