Hello,

Any idea why I get this error?

Code: 
root@svr-lab:~# qm start 199
kvm: -device ide-cd,bus=ide.1,unit=1,drive=drive-ide3,id=ide3,bootindex=103: Can't create IDE unit 1, bus supports only 1 units
start failed: QEMU exited with code 1

Thank you.
 
please share the config of the VM - `qm config 199`

How many cd-rom drives have you added and at what position?
 
VM config:

Code: 
root@svr-lab:~# qm config 199

I have 2 CD-ROM drives, because I will need VirtIO drivers for install Win Server 2k19.
Thank you for your help!

I think the work-around is to use ide0 and ide2, not ide2 and ide3. Change ide3 to ide0 for example.

Don't use ide2 and ide3. Also, don't use ide0 and ide1. Either use ide0 and ide2 or use ide1 and ide3.
