Hello,

I don't know if I should post here or in Network section.
I've built a Windows VM with PCI-E passthrough, in order to stream games on my network.
I'd like to have this VM hibernate while I'm not using it, and be able to resume it from Lan.
The problem is that whatever virtual adapter I assign to it, the option "allow this device to wake the computer" is greyed out, and indeed, magic packets won't wake my VM.

I'm surely missing something, but I don't know what.
Would you be able to help me ?

Thanks
Maelinou
 
HI,
AFAIK WOL will not supported by virtual nics.
Why you can't wake the VM up over the WebGUI?
 
Hello,

Thank you for your reply.
I can of course, but I'm lazy, and I'd like to wake up the VM from the stream client, using my game controller , executing a script from Steam interface :)
Anyway, I'll probably go for a php script then, that will issue a qm start $VM , unless more elegant solutions would exist.
