  • Sep 21, 2020

Prepare

  1. create a virtual machine in PVE with id 101 and network E1000
  2. upload the img file to the PVE system, e.g. /root/
qemu-img convert -f raw -O qcow2 synoboot.img synoboot.qcow2
  1. import the initial diso to the disk 
    qm importdisk 101 synoboot.qcow2 local-lvm

  2. add the inital diso disk to the sata array, change the device lable from SCSI to SATA

  3. search the dev-id of the disk that will be passed-through to the vm, e.g. get the id: ata-ST3500418AS_9VMB2L6M
ls -l /dev/disk/by-id/
  1. set the disk pass-through to the vm. 
    qm set dsm --sata2 /dev/disk/by-id/ata-ST4000VX007-2DT166_ZGY7CTQ9
  2. set the boot disk of the vm

shuddown VM

if the VM cannot be closed, search the PID of the machine:

ps aux | grep "/usr/bin/kvm -id 101"

Kill it with:

kill -9 PID
