Windows 10: Hyper V - SR-IOV Virtualisation Passthrough - WindowsAdminCenter

Hi all,I'm off my meds and had some time. After a caffeinated deep dive, I now have diarrhoea but no answers, so am crawling cap in hand to the community!Mission statement/desired outcome: It has been a hope to get Hardware Decoding/Encoding working this weekend with my home server hosted in Hyper V, but, after bashing my head against this brick wall, i've decided to reach out to you fine folks before I got a concussion!

Hyper-V

Hi,

Hyper-V has a dependency on your System supporting and having enabled Hardware support for Virtualisation. Because of how allocates system resources to a VM directly rather than the simulated approach of a normal VM program. This is typically listed as either
"Virtualization" or "Intel Virtualization Technology" please check this is enabled in your BIOS.

Without it, even if it has been enabled through Windows Hyper-V won't properly activate as it isn't supported.

 

Hyper-V cannot be installed. Virtualisation support is disabled in the Firmware

I have Window 10 and a 64 bit i7 machine.

I have enabled Virtualisation in the BIOS but when I go into turn Windows features on and try and enable it, the option is greyed out with the tooltip:

Hyper-V cannot be installed. Virtualisation support is disabled in the Firmware.

Any ideas?

Thanks

 

existing storage passthrough hyper-v

Hi

I have an existing storage pool on a windows 10 computer. I'm going to set up a vm of server essentials 2016 hosted on a hyper-v server 2016. At the moment I'm still testing on my win 10 computer with hyper-v installed. I would like my vm of server essentials
to manage my existing storage pool. I have taken the pool offline and used disk passthrough so my vm can access it. The disk shows up in the vm but it is not recognized as a storage pool just as a disk. this is strange as it is actually 2 disks pooled. Can
I get the server essentails vm to take control of the existing pool? Is this because my host (win 10) has storage spaces and being the host automatically claims it.?

Thanks!
